Ofsted Rating Good

We are so pleased and delighted that the hard work of the Nursery team was so clearly seen and recorded in Ofsted’s recent visit. With the support of Chatsworth School’s and Oxfordshire Early Years the setting has blossomed, with a newly refurbished baby room and wonderful garden space to add to the outdoor space. We are excited about our future.

Congratulations!

Louise Rose, Nursery Manager
