Welcome toWalthamstow Nursery Schools
Our teacher-led schools offer joyful pre-school education and childcare to children aged 3 and 4 (15 hours, 30 hours and 8am to 6pm daycare), and to some 2 year olds. We hold our Visiting Day stay and play sessions most weeks in term time, and in the school holidays our Playschemes welcome older children too.
We believe in free play and child-led discovery, and our purpose-built nursery schools are designed for playful learning. Our highly-qualified staff teach children beyond the Early Years Foundation Stage framework (EYFS) curriculum. We are inspected by Ofsted and funded by the London Borough of Waltham Forest.
We are a fully inclusive organisation where everyone is valued. We work in partnership with children and their families from all faiths and none, from all cultures, and with the widest range of needs.
Church Hill and Low Hall are federated schools: we have one Executive Head Teacher and one Governing Body, and we collaborate to share our expertise.
Ofsted tells us we are 'Outstanding' and 'Good'. Parents tell us we are 'a magical place' and that 'the staff are absolutely great'.
Please explore our website to find out more about what we have to offer you and your family, then come to play at our Visiting Days.

Here's what he didn't say: Schools still face £3.6bn shortfall by 2022/23. £400m for 16-19 is woefully short of the £1.2bn needed. £66m for early years Is inadequate. £300m is required just to restore cuts. Nothing for Maintained nursery school https://t.co/aUECKzztit

@signoramac @juliecigman @BorisJohnson @LucyMPowell @JackDromeyMP @TracyBrabin @KemiBadenoch It's disheartening. However if nursery schools don't get their top up we will have to close schools all over the country. We're still waiting to hear what they will do with the top up. It's incredibly worrying.

There has been no mention of the proposed amount per pupil for the U.K's Maintained Nursery Schools. Only Secondary and Primary Schools have been discussed on news channels. What about us? @BorisJohnson @GavinWilliamson @TracyBrabin @LucyMPowell @APPG_Nursery https://t.co/kJcxrblHb4

14 billion for education. Where is the funding for Maintained Nursery Schools, Boris? We are schools too. @BorisJohnson . @LucyMPowell and @JackDromeyMP have been working hard to lobby with cross parliamentary support. Please secure our future and secure the futures of children
