About Croyland Nursery School & Day Nursery

Croyland Nursery School & Day Nursery in North Northamptonshire is a state nursery for children aged 0 to 4, currently home to 109 pupils. That number sits against the school’s capacity, and while the data doesn’t give a precise capacity figure, the fact that the school is a nursery means it operates on a part-time and full-time basis, so the 109 figure likely represents the number of children on roll at any one time. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals isn’t provided here, but in the local authority context, North Northamptonshire has four state nurseries in total, and Croyland is one of just two rated Outstanding by Ofsted. That’s a strong signal of demand: parents in the area have limited Outstanding-rated nursery options, so Croyland is likely oversubscribed. The school’s admission information isn’t detailed in the data, but given its rating and the local supply, it’s reasonable to assume places are competitive, particularly for the youngest age groups.
