Nursery at Barmby Moor Church of England 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 If you spot anything outdated or inaccurate, please let us know.
Conversation, cooperation and learning outdoors give Barmby Moor’s early years provision its character. In June 2022, children worked happily with adults and one another, with activities that caught their interest. This is nursery provision within a Church of England primary school in Barmby Moor, rather than a separate setting.
The school’s Christian ethos includes friendship, hope and respect. Those values give families a sense of the wider school culture surrounding the nursery.
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) brings language, communication and early number learning together. At the June 2022 inspection, children developed these skills both outside and indoors. Outdoor space was part of their learning environment, rather than simply somewhere to take a break.
Adults paid close attention to what children said and helped them extend their vocabulary. The practical value is clear: conversation becomes a learning opportunity, with staff helping children find more words to express their ideas. Children were interested in the activities adults prepared and enjoyed learning alongside others.
Early reading also received positive findings in June 2022. Children in early years picked up sounds quickly through effective phonics teaching. Behaviour expectations began in early years too: encouragement and quiet prompts to listen helped children take part in learning. Together, these findings describe a day in which adult interaction matters as much as the activity itself.
Keeping parents involved was a strength of early years in June 2022. Staff explained children’s progress and helped families understand how to continue learning at home. That gives parents a practical role beyond hearing how the day went.
For additional needs, the school uses Termly Support Plans and works with parents to agree support. Its wider SEND arrangements include advice from Speech and Language services and educational psychology, alongside an ELSA room and a separate space for quiet intervention. These are school facilities, with support organised around individual needs.
Parents can discuss concerns with the class teacher or the special educational needs coordinators. During changes of class or setting, staff share information about needs, helpful approaches and medical requirements, so the next team can build on support already in place.
Nursery attendance does not guarantee a Reception place. Families must make a separate application through their home local authority by its normal application deadline. For East Riding residents, that route is East Riding of Yorkshire Council; families living elsewhere apply through their own council.
Transition support is a separate matter. Before Reception starts in September, early years transition meetings involve parents and previous settings. This gives adults an opportunity to discuss the child’s needs before the change.
Nursery children wear a white polo shirt with a red cardigan or sweatshirt. Clothing should carry the child’s name, helping staff return items to the right family.
School visits can be arranged through the office on 01759 304409 or by emailing barmbymoor.primary@eastriding.gov.uk. A visit gives families an opportunity to discuss their child and the nursery provision directly with the school.
No. Families must apply separately for Reception through their home local authority by the normal deadline.
The June 2022 findings describe communication, vocabulary and number learning indoors and outside, alongside phonics teaching.
In June 2022, early years staff kept families informed about progress and explained ways to support learning at home.
