Ramsbury Pre-School | Ofsted Reports, Reviews (2025)

We are a caring and inspirational Pre-School run by highly qualified staff where children learn to approach the world with curiosity, resilience, adaptability and a strong sense of who they are.
Anyone passing through the centre of Ramsbury during term time will be welcomed by the chorus of young voices playing, learning and having fun!
Providing a varied, interesting and engaging curriculum is something that as a Pre-School we take very seriously.
We look outside of the box, beyond the EYFS curriculum, providing opportunities that not all children would have access to, experiences that complement the childrens interests and developmental needs, and are ultimately huge amounts of fun!.
Each summer term, the rising 4s participate in weekly tennis lessons with Ramsbury Tennis Club head coach, Lewis Fletcher and organised by Tennis Xperience UK.
The majority of staff are parents themselves and have first hand experience of the ups and downs that children bring!.
We have an annual training programme covering speech and language development, brain development, safeguarding, behaviour management, health and safety, and food hygiene,.
One of our key values is GROWTH, for both children and staff.
All our happy and motivated staff are learning and developing at any time and they are encouraged and supported in doing so.
Staff regularly meet with and observe other professionals to share good practice, develop their own learning and reflect on how we can make the most of this in our own setting.
Belonging and involvement are two of the values at the core of what we do.
We would not exist without the families and our community.
Started 40years ago by parents as a playgroup, the Pre-School has evolved into what it is today, a progressive nurturing Early years setting rated Outstanding by Ofsted.
Within that framework of community and involvement we are aware that at this stage of a childs life we are here to work with and support families and not just the children.
Our sports days, nativity plays are special calendared events for parents to come along and see what their children do and relax with staff and other families.
We also run special parents workshops where we can support parents in areas such as behaviour management, nutrition and reading to their child.
In addition to our staff, we have a Management Committee run by local volunteers and parents who guide and support the PreSchool.
What this means it that throughout the time your child attends our Pre School you can be directly involved in how it runs.
This special setup allows us to set our own standards and goals, and work in the best way possible for the children, their families and our local community.
We are a charity.
Being a charity means we can apply for, and actively do, various grants and reductions in things that would cost us more- e.g. apply for charity discount on our rates.
All savings go towards providing an incredibly high standard of Early years childcare at affordable and value for money prices.
We have raised all the money for a brand new Pre-School building we own through donations, events, and grant applications.
