5 Kensington Place

Our nursery school on Fulham Road is renowned for its warm, nurturing environment, highly qualified staff, and commitment to fostering the holistic development of each child. We offer a rich, diverse curriculum designed to spark curiosity and a love for learning. Our program integrates play-based learning with structured activities, promoting cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development. Children explore language, mathematics, science, arts, and physical education through engaging, hands-on experiences.

Staff are kind and approachable, they build trusting relationships with children. This helps children feel safe and secure at the nursery. Staff’s expectations for positive behaviour are well embedded. Children remember important rules, such as lining up before leaving the room or returning indoors. – Ofsted Inspection, November 2023
