Chalvey Nursery School and Slough Centre Nursery School joined together in a soft federation in September 2010. Each school kept their own identity and their own governing body but shared a headteacher. During the next 3 years, the two schools formed a close relationship, working together to share resources, trainings and best practice.
This meant that we could focus on raising standards for our children giving them a fantastic education. We have benefitted from the different expertise on each site and we have worked on cross-site projects.
To ensure this continued, in April 2013 the two schools formalised this working relationship and we are now a hard federation (The TLC Nursery Federation) sharing a governing body. I consider Chalvey Nursery as a home from home; it is filled with colour, fun and opportunities for the children to learn.
Above all, the children are able to slowly blossom into confident little beings, aided by well-educated staff that demonstrate that sincerity, passion and love for what they do.
In the school’s own words, from the school website.
