St Andrews Pre-School Shaw

St Andrew Pre-School offers places for children between the ages of 2.5 and 5 years.  We offer a safe, nurturing environment in which each individual child is recognised, valued and supported to achieve their potential through meaningful play experiences. Our free-flowing space from indoors to outdoors ensures those children who learn best through active movement can thrive too.  Our wonderful garden is a constant changing canvas supporting the children’s problem-solving skills and nurturing their creativity, as well as providing rich opportunities for their developing imagination, inventiveness and resourcefulness.

We are guided by the Early Years Foundation Stage and have a "Good" Ofsted rating, Ofsted say " The well-planned range of enjoyable activities and experiences sustain children's interest and keep them engaged. Children are motivated learners and make good progress.  The rich, stimulating and imaginative environment, both indoors and outdoors, provides a wealth of opportunities for children to explore and investigate. Children are extremely confident and independent".
