Steeple Aston Pre-School is situated in the quiet, rural village of Steeple Aston. The purpose built Victorian school has been modernised and extended for the exclusive use of pre-school children. We are the feeder pre-school to Dr Radcliffe's Primary School and we have a close working relationship with them. The children all benefit from this familiarity with a primary school setting, whether they go on to attend Dr Radcliffe's or another school. Please note: attending Steeple Aston Pre-School does not ensure a place at Dr Radcliffe's Primary School.
We are a voluntary pre-school with charity status, run by a committee made up of volunteer parents and staff, encouraging parental involvement in the pre-school. We are inspected and approved by the LEA, Social Services and OFSTED. We were last inspected in November 2011 by OFSTED and the pre-school received 'very good' overall and 'outstanding' in many areas. Copies of the report are available on request or at www.ofsted.gov.uk.

Ofsted
"The children benefit from a very well organised day and an extensive range of opportunities to explore both indoors and out. They are supervised by an extremely capable staff group who work exceptionally well together to support individual learning and development and keep children safe."

Our Approach

Helping children achieve well and enjoy what they do
The provision is outstanding
All children receive a very high level of attention and consequently settle exceptionally well, rapidly becoming fully engrossed in the activities.
The staff accurately assess individual needs when children start at the setting, and they provide precisely the correct level of support to help them become fully included as welcome members of the pre-school community.

Testimonials

Nothing can be more important than the start we give to children's education.
From the very fist day of attending Steeple Aston Pre-school Maia was made to feel happy, secure and at home.
I would like to thank the team at pre school for their amazing ability to assist my son in settling in to their environment. We had relocated from scotland & our little boy was new to the area...
