Hadfield Nursery School
About Hadfield Nursery School
If you're a parent in High Peak considering Hadfield Nursery School, the feedback from other families is strikingly positive. In the most recent Parent View survey, a remarkable 96% of respondents said they would recommend the school. That confidence is backed up by the detail: 88% of parents strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, and 92% strongly agreed that their child feels safe. Communication seems to be a real strength too, with 92% strongly agreeing the school makes them aware of what their child will learn, and 88% strongly agreeing they're kept informed about how their child is doing. The school is a state nursery for children aged 2 to 5, with just 54 pupils on roll, so it's a small, close-knit setting. Headteacher Kenneth Weed leads a team that clearly inspires trust, though it's worth noting the school doesn't publish an oversubscription ratio, so it's not possible to gauge how competitive places are from the data alone.
