Nursery at Borough Green 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 If you spot anything outdated or inaccurate, please let us know.
A separate baby suite and an 8am to 6pm opening window give Steps to School Day Nursery a different shape from the primary school day. This is the nursery provision at Borough Green Primary School, on School Approach in Borough Green, Sevenoaks. For families considering care on a school site, the baby suite is a concrete feature to weigh alongside the length of the day.
Ofsted graded the school's early years provision Good at the inspection on 6 to 7 March 2024. That judgement covers the school's early years provision; it is not a separate nursery rating.
The nursery includes a baby suite separate from its other accommodation. That distinction matters when considering the space intended for younger children, rather than treating the nursery as a single room for every age.
The surrounding school grounds contain a pond within a nature area, a forest school area and a reading shed. An outdoor classroom also has a stage. These are features of the school campus, rather than a description of a nursery session, but they give families a concrete picture of the wider setting in which the nursery sits.
For special educational needs questions, the school has a SENCO and a SEN Assistant, with a dedicated contact address, SEND@bgpschool.kent.sch.uk. This gives parents a specific route for discussing their child's needs alongside their conversations with the nursery team.
A Family Liaison Officer offers school families appointments by telephone, online or in person, with bookings through the office. The role includes helping families access other services and exploring support within school. Early Help Services and the Local Food Bank are among the referral routes, making this a practical contact for difficulties extending beyond the classroom.
Nursery attendance does not guarantee a Reception place. Families must make a separate Reception application through the normal admissions route. Online applications go through Kent at www.kent.gov.uk/ola; a paper application can also be obtained from a school. Treat this as a separate decision and application, even if your child already attends the nursery.
Borough Green Primary is a Foundation school, and its governors determine admissions policy. Familiarity with the school site and an application for a school place are different matters: nursery attendance should never be treated as confirmation of a Reception offer.
The nursery opens from 8am until 6pm. Its direct contact details are steps@bgpschool.kent.sch.uk and 01732 780431, giving families a nursery-specific enquiry route.
Travel and parking. Access to the school is along School Approach, and visitor parking is limited. Borough Green and Wrotham railway station is a few minutes' walk away. For a visit by car, the school gives TN15 8ER as the sat-nav postcode for its main entrance, while its postal address uses TN15 8JZ. Keeping those two postcodes distinct can make planning the journey simpler.
