Child-specific learning

Our activities are designed to encourage and enable each child to participate and interact. We tailor our activities to individual abilities; not only does this guarantee that each child can participate and succeed, it allows children to work at their own pace, which is crucial when developing their own learning strategies.

All our rooms have a calm and relaxing atmosphere in which every child is offered a variety of activities, encouraging their confidence levels and well-being.

At New House Nursery School, we're proud to be rated Outstanding by OFSTED, to be Quality Accredited by KQM and to hold a 5* food hygiene rating.
