Crosfield Nursery School
About Crosfield Nursery School
Crosfield Nursery School, a state nursery in Croydon for children aged two to five, holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent inspection in 2024. The school has maintained this standard consistently; its previous graded inspection in 2015 also awarded Good, and the 2024 ungraded inspection confirmed the school remains Good. For a nursery, the most telling metric is the early years provision judgement, which Ofsted rated as Good. This is the core academic measure for a setting of this type, reflecting the quality of teaching, learning and assessment for the youngest children. With 74 pupils on roll, the school is relatively small, which allows for focused attention on each child's early development. The headteacher, Daniel Bissex, leads a team that has kept the school's overall effectiveness and leadership and management at a Good level across both its graded inspections.
