Woodfield Nursery School
About Woodfield Nursery School
Woodfield Nursery School is a state-funded nursery in Pendle, Lancashire, currently educating 111 children aged two to five. That figure sits against the school’s capacity, though the data doesn’t specify the exact maximum, so it’s hard to say whether it’s full or has room. What is clear is that Woodfield serves a community with a notable proportion of children eligible for free school meals — the school’s FSM rate is higher than the national average, reflecting the local demographic in this part of the North West. The school is mixed and has no religious character, so it draws from a broad catchment. Demand appears healthy: the school’s admission information isn’t detailed in the data, but given that there are only 24 state nurseries across the whole of Lancashire, and just eight of those are rated Outstanding, a Good-rated nursery like Woodfield is likely to be a popular local choice for families seeking early years provision within the LA area.
