Nursery at Bournebrook CofE Primary 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 If you spot anything outdated or inaccurate, please let us know.
Named wellington boots are part of Bournebrook’s nursery day, with outdoor learning continuing in different weather. This is the nursery within the Church of England primary school in Fillongley, forming part of its Foundation Stage. Provision is for three and four year olds, with morning and afternoon sessions rather than nursery wraparound care.
The Foundation Stage team includes a senior teacher and a senior early years educator. For families, the practical distinction is important: children join a school setting, but their hours and care arrangements follow the nursery’s own session pattern.
Children combine carpet sessions with activities they choose themselves and activities supported by adults. PE, occasional visitors and visits beyond school also feature in the Foundation Stage day. That gives the routine both shared learning and opportunities to follow an interest.
In 2020, the nursery’s Rainbow room contained a home corner, a number area and space for drawing and early writing. Its carpet area included a whiteboard. The Workshop provided another kind of learning space: children could build models, paint, explore water and work with playdough. These are concrete ways to practise making, communicating and experimenting, rather than spending the whole session on seated tasks.
Outdoor learning takes place in different weather conditions, so named wellington boots are part of the equipment children need. Each child has a peg for coats and PE kit. The combination makes outdoor activity part of the routine, with belongings kept in an individual space.
Settling begins before the first session. Home visits introduce nursery children and their parents to staff, while Foundation Stage induction visits and parent meetings provide further opportunities to become familiar with school. A changing station and accessible toilet are provided in Foundation Stage.
Lunch takes place in Foundation Stage for nursery children. Families can choose a hot meal or send a healthy packed lunch; hot meals are ordered through ParentPay. Fresh fruit is offered at snack time, and daily milk is available until a child’s fifth birthday following registration with Cool Milk. These arrangements give parents specific choices about food during the session.
For children with special educational needs or disabilities, support involves the class teacher and SEND coordinator. Parents contribute to One Page Profiles and discussions about targets. Specialist Teacher Service support can help identify individual needs and inform personal learning plans. This provides a route from a concern to planned support, with families involved in decisions.
Nursery attendance does not guarantee a Reception place at Bournebrook. Families must make a separate school application through the normal local authority process and meet the deadline for their child’s entry year. Warwickshire County Council handles school admissions; choosing this nursery does not oblige a child to continue at Bournebrook.
For children needing additional transition support, information about their provision passes to the receiving teacher. Parents of children with a high level of need can request extra transition meetings. That continuity concerns support for the child, rather than entitlement to a place.
Morning sessions run from 8:50am to 11:50am, with afternoons from 12:20pm to 3:20pm in the session timetable. The application form gives a 3:30pm afternoon finish, so confirm the collection time with school before booking. Nursery operates five days each week during term time, across 38 weeks, and closes for teacher training days. Attendance must total at least 15 hours, or five sessions, weekly; irregular attendance below that minimum can lead to withdrawal of the place. Flexible timetabling can be discussed with school.
Eligible children can use 15 or 30 funded hours. Funding applies to nursery sessions, while lunch club and hot food carry separate charges. Families splitting 30-hour funding between settings must use at least 15 hours at Bournebrook. Ask the school for current charges.
Working-day coverage. Fun Club does not take nursery children, so families needing care beyond nursery sessions will need another arrangement.
Nursery pupils may wear a white T-shirt for indoor PE, with navy or black shorts. To request an application form or arrange a visit, contact the school office on 01676 540390 or email admin3215@welearn365.com.
The nursery offers provision for three and four year olds. Funded places can begin from the term after a child’s third birthday, subject to a place being available.
Morning sessions are 8:50am to 11:50am. Afternoons start at 12:20pm, with a 3:20pm finish in the session timetable and 3:30pm on the application form. Confirm afternoon collection with school before booking. Sessions operate during term time.
