Kings School is an exceptional school. My family feels like part of an extended family at King's. The staff are amazing, professional, helpful, friendly, passionate, dedicated, and kind.
They recognise the importance of nurturing our children and ensuring they meet their fullest potential.
My daughters
are very happy here and feel loved and cared for.
It's peace of mind for us as parents when we drop off our children to know we are leaving them in very capable hands.
I'd like to commend all the hard work every member of staff put in. I also recognise without a strong, admirable, proficient, and dedicated leader this wouldn't be possible. Thank you to the manager, you are without a doubt a blessing to the school.
You all are the best and form a huge part of the growth and development of our children.
We appreciate you all.
Kings School is an outstanding school, I'd recommend the school to anyone as our experience over the years has been second to none.

Our daughter started in the foundation room Sept 2024. We were anxious about how she would settle and deal with wearing a uniform for the first time.
She has settled well and loves the uniform. She really enjoys knowing the structure of the day in advance. (Tuesdays Forest school, Thursdays Music,
and Fridays IT).
The team are very professional and from talking with them at the door and in the meetings with the teachers they have really understood and gotten to know our daughter as an individual.
We are now aiming for her to continue into reception and onward.

Reply from Marcus Batten, Registrar at King's School & Nursery

Thank you so much for sharing your lovely feedback! Were delighted to hear how well your daughter has settled into the Foundation Room and that she's embracing her uniform and the structured routine of the week. It's wonderful that she's enjoying Forest School, Music, and IT key highlights of our holistic approach to learning. Our team takes great pride in getting to know each child individually, and it's fantastic to hear that this has been your experience. We're so pleased you're considering continuing her journey with us into Reception and beyond. We look forward to supporting her every step of the way!

My child has been transformed in terms of confidence and overall well-being since attending this nursery. They originally attended for 3 days out of 5 and asked to attend more often. They then asked to stay for longer hours too! This was a child who really struggled with settling at their first other
nursery and didn't want to go to nursery at all and now after attending Kings they love nursery and I can relax knowing they are well cared for and happy. Staff are always friendly and welcoming. Amazing nursery and staff.

Reply from Marcus Batten, Registrar at King's School & Nursery

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! It's heartwarming to hear how much your child has grown in confidence and overall well-being since joining our nursery. Knowing that they've gone from struggling to settle elsewhere to loving their time here and even asking for more days and longer hours is the best compliment we could receive. Our team works hard to create a nurturing and welcoming environment, so it's fantastic to know this has made such a positive difference for your child and your peace of mind. Thank you for trusting us, and we are so grateful to be part of your child's journey.

My son has been going to the nursery for the last 18 months and is thriving there. The staff are exceptional and take a real interest in him. It's lovely to see the bonds he has with those in his room and the effort the team put into making each day interesting and fun for him. He also has two allergies
that have always been catered for and he never misses out on activities due to them. My husband and I are so pleased we chose Kings and would highly recommend it.

A phenomenal nursery that keeps our children and us as a family at the heart of everything they do.
The outstanding leadership can be seen threaded through the delivery of care, and support, and is most importantly illustrated in the smiles on our daughter's face.
We love having them all in our lives.
If you are looking to bring real-life angels into your life - this is the nursery for you and your children.

We couldn't have wished for a better nursery for our daughter. The staff are absolutely wonderful, nurturing, kind and understanding. They have embraced her additional needs and been incredibly supportive. It is so reassuring to know that she is not only being looked after well but also that they are
proactive in providing stimulating activities and ensuring she is integrated with her peers. The management team are incredibly organised and accommodating too. The school has also been outstanding for our older daughter.

Excellent nursery. I feel very comfortable leaving my daughter at King's School and Nursery. It is hard to find anything wrong with it yet the outside space looks a bit tired but that doesn't take away from the fun my daughter has out there. The rooms are always tidy, clean and warm. The staff are welcoming
and hard working.

Thank you for your lovely review and for sharing your experience with us! We're delighted to hear that your daughter enjoys her time at King's and that you feel confident leaving her in our care.

Our Son has been attending King's Reception class since September. He was very nervous at the beginning but after a few weeks and much kindness and thoughtfulness from all the staff, he is now smiling going into school. It is most important to us that he is happy whilst he learns and makes friends.
We are extremely happy with Kings School and Nursery.

Both my children have attended King's Nursey from babies through to pre-school.
I can't say enough about what a wonderful time they both had throughout their time there and how impressed I was with the staff.
My children always came home telling me what a great day they had and what fun things they
had done. They excelled in the environment with their speech and recognition of numbers and letters (and Spanish!).
I will highly recommend the nursery for providing the most amazing start for children.

My son has been going to King's Nursery since January 2023 and I have no complaints so far. The staff are absolutely lovely and I don’t have to worry about my son while he is in the nursery at all, as I know that the staff will take very good care of him. He is there the whole day all five days and
when I go to collect him I see a happily playing child. I do witness this from the other children’s faces as well. I feel very fortunate to have got a place for my son at King's. I hope they will get more space so that more children will benefit from their excellent service.

We are very pleased and happy with our choice of nursery at Kings School and Nursery. Our 2 year old daughter loves attending and we have never had any problems with her wanting to go. The nursery is very well-resourced with a broad range of learning opportunities provided both indoors and out. The
staff are super helpful, imaginative and informative. We have always had insightful feedback on our daughter's development and enjoy the regular updates and progress in photo form on the app.
Our daughter's development has definitely been enhanced and we are amazed by new progress on an almost daily basis. There is always a good ratio of staff to children and a good impression of it being a safe environment.
We have had no concerns of any kind and all staff and the management are very flexible, supportive and approachable. I’d have no hesitation in recommending King's School and Nursery to prospective parents.

King's School and Nursery is the perfect setting for little ones and it is so reassuring when my son makes no fuss when we part ways. It is great to feel he is in safe hands.
The staff are friendly, kind, caring and develop an excellent relationship with the children in their care. My son started
age 7 months and is loving life.
The online journal documents snapshots of his day and it is awesome to see the different activities he is getting up to, milestones being reached and how much he is enjoying the surroundings.
My son eats a wide range of food suitable for his stage in development, and this is shared in a journal which comes home every night so we are fully aware of how he has eaten.
Thank you to all of the staff involved.
