About Selhurst Nursery School and Children's Centre

Of the 82 children at Selhurst Nursery School and Children's Centre, the school's most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024 rated it Good overall, a significant improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2020. While the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage, the inspection report noted that personal development is Outstanding, which often reflects a strong, supportive environment for young children. The school is oversubscribed, indicating that local families actively seek places here. This is a state nursery for children aged 2 to 5, and it is one of five nursery schools in Croydon, with only two in the local authority rated Outstanding. The nearest Outstanding alternative is Tunstall Nursery School, 1.4 km away, so Selhurst is a strong contender for families in the area.
