About Gracelands Nursery School

Gracelands Nursery School is one of 27 state nursery schools in Birmingham, and it sits in a strong local landscape: 17 of those nurseries hold an Outstanding rating from Ofsted. The school itself is among that group, having been judged Outstanding in its most recent graded inspection. Its nearest Outstanding neighbour is Jakeman Nursery School, about two kilometres away. Headteacher Samantha Richards leads a mixed nursery for children aged two to five, with 95 pupils on roll. Just over a fifth of children are eligible for free school meals, which is a useful indicator of the school's place within its community. The school does not have a religious character, and its provision is purely daytime nursery — there is no boarding.
