Rothesay Nursery School
About Rothesay Nursery School
Of the parents who responded to Ofsted's Parent View questionnaire, 100% would recommend Rothesay Nursery School to other families. This is a strong signal of satisfaction, though it is worth noting that the school is a state nursery for children aged 2 to 5, so the parent body is relatively small. The school is not oversubscribed according to available data, which means that families living in the Luton area are likely to secure a place without the competition seen at some larger primary schools. Headteacher Nicola Elsmore-Cary leads a team that cares for 116 children, with 16.7% of pupils eligible for free school meals, a figure that gives some indication of the local community the school serves.
