  • The Nursery at Tettenhall College, Wolverhampton
The Nursery and Pre-School at Tettenhall College is for children aged 2 and above.

Set within 33-acres of stunning grounds in the picturesque village of Tettenhall, children have an exceptional start to their learning journey.

The facilities are first rate and completely unrivaled in the local area. Learners enjoy enriching experiences across the school's extensive campus.

From weekly woodland walks in Forest School and story time in the beautiful library, to performing on stage in the historic Victorian theatre and swimming lessons for pre-school children in the onsite indoor pool, children are immersed in a dynamic learning environment.

Each child benefits from a carefully curated development profile, enabling teachers to tailor learning experiences within a warm, nurturing, family-focused environment.

Teachers work closely with parents to ensure they can follow their child’s development through real-time updates via the Tapestry app, parent workshops and parents’ evenings.

Children follow a traditional yet flexible curriculum.

Reading is a core part of the day, fostering a love for books from the very beginning. Children also follow the same maths and phonics schemes as the rest of the school and enjoy lessons in the music room.

The Nursery offers wraparound care including a breakfast club and a holiday club, ensuring flexibility for families beyond term time.

Community is at the heart of Tettenhall College, and from the very start younger learners participate in whole school events such as sports day and charity initiatives. The school is proud of the diverse and inclusive ethos, celebrating all faiths and cultures within the classroom.

We couldn't be happier with Tettenhall College nursery. Every member of the team is consistently kind, welcoming, and genuinely caring. Our daughter has grown so much in confidence since starting, thanks to the nurturing environment. What stands out most is the strong sense of community. It really feels
like a family, and that has made all the difference. We absolutely love it and would recommend to other parents.

Our daughter, has been attending Tettenhall College nursery since she was 2. Since she has started, we've seen such a positive difference. From her speech to her confidence. The nursery setting is an engaging space with plentiful outdoor facilities, most notably the forestry setting which nursery take
advantage of. The teaching staff all provide the same level of care, empathy and nurture. She has continued to thrive, which is all down to support that is provided. We very much look forward to her pre-school journey, so much so that we have increased her days.

My son started here just after Easter and he has settled in brilliantly well. The teachers are great at building independence but also being a reassuring face or hug if needed. My son does 5 days a week and it means I can work freely without having to worry about him or the care he receives.
The extra
curricular offering is also brilliant. I would absolutely recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We couldn't be happier with our daughter's experience at Tettenhall College pre-school. From the very first day, it was clear that this is a place filled with warmth, care, and a genuine passion for early childhood development.


The teachers and staff have created such a nurturing and supportive environment,

where our daughter has not only felt safe and loved but also encouraged to grow and explore. Every morning she has been excited to go to school, and every afternoon she comes home full of stories, songs, and new things she's learned.


Academically, she has made wonderful progress-recognising letters, numbers, and even beginning to write her name with confidence. But more importantly, she's developed strong social skills, empathy, and a real love of learning. The curriculum strikes the perfect balance between structured activities and creative, play.
We wholeheartedly recommend it to any family looking for a place where their child can truly thrive.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 2-year-old son absolutely thrives at this nursery. From day one, the staff have been incredibly welcoming, kind, and attentive, making the transition smooth for both him and us as parents. The environment is nurturing, safe, and filled with opportunities for play, learning, and development.


The

team go above and beyond to create engaging activities each day - I'm always impressed by the creativity and care that goes into everything they do. He comes home happy, confident, and full of new words, songs, and stories.


Communication is excellent too - we receive regular updates and photos that give us real insight into his day. It's clear how much the staff genuinely care about the children, and that makes all the difference.


We honestly couldn't ask for a better start to his early years. Highly recommend!

Review from L R (Father of Child) published on 24 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son started in nursery as soon as he was two, and he has progressed through pre school in to the prep school. We selected Tettenhall College based upon 'feel'; it promotes and practices a family environment, focusing upon each child as an individual, tailoring the learning experience to match their
ability. Whilst our son only did three days per week during the early years phase, the staff in pre school worked with him one-to-one to ensure that he did not miss any crucial elements of the informal curriculum. He has been able to build upon those foundations and has thrived as he has moved through the school. The theme based learning - including visits to the local fire station and visits from the local police force - was a particular highlight for our son. The facilities are exemplary - clean, well equipped and well organised, and the setting provides for special Forest School activities.

Tettenhall College nursery is a wonderful nursery. From the moment we took our daughter for her settling in day she absolutely loved it, she was always smiling and it lives up to it's ethos of being a family school. All the staff are wonderful and we had complete confidence that she was looked after.
The facilities are excellent, the nursery setting allows the children to explore indoor and outdoor play area safely and they then have access to the amazing forest and grounds. Our daughter progressed through to prep school where she is now and still has a smile every day.

What an amazing experience my son has had here. He started in prep a very shy and quiet boy who could barely speak. In the space of 2 years I now have a confident little boy who has an incredible imagination. The pastoral care is exceptional here and they truly get the best out of your child. The trips,
classroom experiences and the sports available are extensive too. I now have a daughter who will absolutely attend the school I have been so impressed

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Outstanding Preschool Experience at Tettenhall College.
My granddaughter started at Tettenhall College in Preschool Year 2 this September after previously attending another school in Wolverhampton. We moved her because the class sizes were too large, and the school wasn't meeting her needs. Moving
her to Tettenhall College has been the best decision. In just a short time, she has made remarkable progress. The teachers are kind, caring and attentive, ensuring every child reaches their full potential. Extra support is quickly identified, and a plan is put in place. The school offers fantastic opportunities, including Forest School, swimming and music classes. Most importantly, smaller class sizes and a well-structured curriculum create an environment where children truly thrive. A strong early education is vital and many families here make sacrifices to give their children the best start. We couldn't be happier with our choice and highly recommend this school.

My son went through this nursery and is now in the Prep school at Tettenhall. He had the most incredible time, his key worker and the rest of the team couldn't do enough for him. The grounds are amazing and the fact he got to use them all was great. I've not come across another nursery with a swimming
pool before, he loved those sessions the most. I would 100% recommend this nursery.

My daughter loves attending Tettenhall Nursery, not only has she developed her social skills but their diverse weekly topics and variety of activities including forest school and PE means she is kept active physically and mentally. The nursery staff are great, they create a friendly welcoming environment,
encouraging independence and supporting the children through one-on-one and group activities. I will certainly be sending my son here when he is older.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.987)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.987) out of 10 for The Nursery at Tettenhall College is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.987 for The Nursery at Tettenhall College is calculated as follows: ( (155 Excellents x 5) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.987
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Nursery at Tettenhall College is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 58 number of registered child places is 11.6, which has been reached with 13 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
