From a child’s first day at Pippa Pop-ins nursery schools, we tailor their learning, development and independence so that they can navigate the assessment stage with confidence, and embrace the transition to school. We are proud to send our children to a variety of leading schools where they continue to thrive.
We have excellent partnerships with local schools and many of our children progress to those listed below. If you are looking for your child to attend a particular school, please discuss this with us so we can let you know about our readiness for school programmes which are tailored for entry into your preferred choice.
