Nursery at Westbrook 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 If you spot anything outdated or inaccurate, please let us know.
Weather wonders, Animal Rescuers and Ocean Treasures give Westbrook's nursery learning a clear identity: practical play organised around named topics. Robin is the nursery class at Westbrook Primary School on Westbrook Road in Heston, Hounslow. It sits within the school's early years provision.
Ofsted judged early years provision Good at the inspection on 24 and 25 September 2024. That judgement covers the school's early years, rather than a separately inspected nursery.
Play provides the main route into learning, with adult structure at some points and connections to everyday life where possible. The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) brings together seven areas: language and communication, physical development, social and emotional development, literacy, mathematics, creative expression and understanding the world. For parents, this means learning extends beyond early reading and number work to how children communicate, move and relate to others.
Westbrook Wonder World is the school's named curriculum approach, linking knowledge and skills across subjects. Nursery topics include This is me and To the rescue - Superheroes alongside Weather wonders, Animal Rescuers and Ocean Treasures. These give learning a recognisable theme rather than presenting each subject in isolation.
The nursery aims to adapt learning to children's development and existing abilities. Its starting point is what each child can already manage, with success at an appropriate level intended to build confidence for further learning. In September 2024, early years routines helped children understand expectations, while teaching engaged their interest across learning areas. Positive behaviour was taught from early years onwards.
Settling begins with induction events for children joining early years, arrangements for home visits and visits to daycare providers. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) may have extra visits and meetings involving parents and the Early Years Teaching and Support Service. This creates opportunities to discuss support before the change of setting.
For concerns about development or learning, the class teacher is the first contact, with the SEND coordinator supporting further planning. A SEND Support Plan records additional needs and targets; parents agree targets at meetings at least three times per year. Specialist assessment or outside-service involvement requires parental permission. Families therefore have a defined part in decisions about additional support.
Accessible toilets and changing facilities are available within EYFS. Daily information can be shared between home and school, while private meetings with the teacher or SEND coordinator provide a route for more sensitive conversations.
Nursery attendance does not guarantee a Reception place. Families must make a separate Reception application through the normal admissions route and meet the deadline for their child's entry year.
For September 2026 entry, applications were online between 1 September 2025 and 15 January 2026. That cycle has passed.
Preparation for a new class is a separate matter. For children with SEND, information passes to the next teacher, usually with a planning meeting about strengths, difficulties and successful strategies. Support Plans and EHC plans are shared, helping the next team understand the support already in place.
Nursery application enquiries go to admissions@westbrookprimary.co.uk. Westbrook also has a funded nursery application route for two-year-olds; this should be treated as a distinct application category, rather than a statement of eligibility for every family.
