About Maples Nursery School and Children's Centre
Maples Nursery School and Children's Centre in Ealing is a state-funded nursery for children aged 2 to 5, currently home to 83 pupils. That figure sits below its capacity, which suggests there is room for more families to take up places. The school serves a mixed-gender intake and has no religious character. While the data does not include a specific free school meals percentage for Maples, the local authority context shows that Ealing has five nursery schools of this type in total, with three rated Outstanding. The nearest Outstanding-rated option, South Acton Childrens Centre, is just one kilometre away, so competition for places at the highest-rated settings is tight. Admission information is not detailed in the data, but the fact that the school is not oversubscribed at its current pupil count may indicate that local demand is being met without significant pressure. For parents weighing up their options, this is a nursery that still has capacity to welcome new children.
