From the Once Upon A Time Nursery School - White House Farm
After an unannounced inspection in February 2015, our nursery school on Wroxham Road in Sprowston, which began operations in 2007, achieved its first Outstanding grade from Ofsted. In February 2020, this grade remained unchanged. This rating, which is the best one, reassures families that we uphold the highest standards.
We bought Jigsaw Nursery School on Constitution Hill in April 2014, and we gave it a new name. In August 2014, there was a significant renovation, and a new management group was appointed. This nursery received a Good rating from Ofsted in January 2016 and again in August 2019.
On White House Farm, we opened our third daycare and nursery school in July 2017. The kids can explore the surroundings naturally as we make the most of the lovely environment. We were thrilled that this nursery received an Outstanding rating from Ofsted on our initial inspection in November 2019.
We also opened a term-time, sessional care nursery in 2007 at Sprowston's Cecil Gowing Infant School. During the school year, this nursery exclusively provides care for three and four-year-old children. Many of the kids who attend this nursery move smoothly to the infant school next door. In January 2017, Ofsted gave this nursery a Good rating.
