Nursery at Horsted Infant School
Last reviewed: October 2026 · Inspection data and key information above update regularly, however, this review below is refreshed bi-annually and may not reflect recent changes. Contact the nursery directly to confirm current arrangements. If you spot anything outdated or inaccurate, please let us know.
A nursery within an infant school is the defining feature here: Horsted Infant School has nursery provision as part of its primary setting in Chatham. The school is open, state funded, mixed and has no religious character.
The school’s Ofsted rating is Good. That is a whole-school judgement, not a separate nursery grade.
Attending the nursery does not guarantee a place in the school’s Reception. Nursery and Reception admissions are separate processes: families must apply again through the normal Reception application route by the normal deadline. Treat choosing a nursery place and applying for Reception as two separate decisions.
