Welcome to the Ark Tindal Nursery
Our nursery classes are teacher-led, and all of our staff in the nursery hold a degree in early years. Our nursery provision has been rated as outstanding by Ofsted.
Our nursery staff have specialist knowledge of early years, and strong subject-knowledge. They are here to support your child with his or her transition into Reception class. School can be a shock to children who come along from private day nurseries, but at Ark Tindal the Nursery and Reception staff work really closely together to ensure this doesn't happen.
Here to support your child in our nursery are:
- Edith Burns - Early Years Lead
- Tanzila Saboor - Nursery Teacher
- Tara Connolly - Early Years Practitioner
- Anya Caton - Early Years Practitioner
We follow the statutory framework for the early years foundation stage (EYFS), which is set by the Department for Education.
