Why Choose a School Nursery

At our Co-op Academy Portland, we’re proud to offer so much more than childcare – we provide a brilliant start to your child’s education.

 

A Seamless Start to School Life

As part of the school, our nurseries make the move to Reception easier. Children get to know the school environment, staff, and routines early on, helping them feel confident and ready for their next steps.

 

Highly Qualified Staff

Our nurseries are led by experienced Early Years professionals, including teachers with Qualified Teacher Status. They ensure that every activity is designed to spark curiosity and build strong learning foundations.

 

Learning in a School Setting

We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, balancing play with structured activities that prepare children for school life. Plus, with access to school facilities like libraries and sports areas, children enjoy enriched learning experiences.

 

Building Social Skills

By learning alongside a wider group of peers, children develop the confidence and communication skills they’ll need in school and beyond.

 

Focused on the Future

Our nurseries help children master the basics of literacy, numeracy, and motor skills, ensuring they’re ready for Reception.

We welcome you to come and look around our nursery. Please call the school on 0151 652 5124 to make an appointment.
