The Old School House Montessori Nursery, Lewes

We’re outstanding!

We are very pleased to say that, following an inspection in March 2011, Ofsted has awarded the nursery ‘Outstanding’ in all 17 of the categories that it uses to assess the quality of a setting.

The report says that the nursery is exceptional in the extent to which children “achieve and enjoy their learning”, “feel safe”, “adopt healthy lifestyles”, and “develop skills for the future”.

This is the highest award it is possible to get and adds to the Outstanding we received in 2007/08 and the Highly Commended we were given in 2005 (the highest accolade available at the time).

All in all I think this award is an achievement that reflects brilliantly on the staff and highlights the effort they put in to offer the children care and education over and above the standards laid down in the national guidelines.

Visit the Ofsted site to read the full report, or if you’d like to know more, please do stop me and ask.

A very nice letter

Welcome

Thanks for visiting our website. It’s been created with both current and prospective parents in mind. Hopefully it will give you some useful information about the all-year round care we provide.

We believe children are naturally curious to learn

In particular, I’d like to point out the ‘Approach‘ and ‘Mini Monties‘ pages. Both will help you understand more about Montessori teaching and how it enables us to give children at the nursery the very best care.

Do give me a call at the nursery if you’d like to know more.

Yours sincerely,

Lindy Baldwin, Propretior

Build on your child’s natural curiosity

To this little girl, using the blocks to create the tower is natural and fun. To our trained Montessori teachers, she is enjoying herself, learning visual discrimination and taking her first steps in early maths.

Your child has an extraordinary capacity to learn and develop new skills. To see how we can help them reach their full potential, come along for a visit. We’d be delighted to show you around.
