About Eastfield Nursery School
Eastfield Nursery School sits within Wolverhampton’s local authority, where it is one of four state nursery schools rated Outstanding by Ofsted out of a total of seven such schools in the area. Its nearest Outstanding-rated neighbour is Bilston Nursery School, 2.6 kilometres away, placing Eastfield firmly among the top tier of early years provision in the borough. The school serves children aged two to five and is mixed gender, with no religious character. Headteacher Emma Smith leads a setting that currently has 113 pupils on roll. The school’s most recent inspection, an ungraded visit in March 2023, confirmed that it remains Outstanding, a rating it has held consistently since at least its previous graded inspection in 2012. For parents in Wolverhampton weighing up nursery options, Eastfield stands out as one of a small handful of state nurseries in the area with the highest possible Ofsted grade.
