  • Partou Old School House Day Nursery & Pre-School, Chorley
Partou Old School House Day Nursery & Pre-School is situated in the heart of Chorley with excellent transport links including the M61 and Chorley bus and train stations nearby. It is a nursery that families consistently describe as a genuine home from home.

Rooms are thoughtfully laid out with handpicked resources and a bespoke curriculum tailored to the interests and needs of the children at that time. Staff have a genuine passion for early years education and take time to truly get to know every child, meaning little ones settle quickly and thrive with confidence.

The dining experience is a real highlight. Children can watch meals being freshly prepared each morning, and pre-schoolers serve themselves from the dinner trolley, building independence, self-help skills and confidence in a wonderfully natural way.

Outdoor learning is taken seriously here. The back garden has been transformed into an outdoor classroom offering the richness of indoor learning in the open air, alongside a dedicated physical development area. Two outdoor spaces are made full use of every day, and regular community outings to the local pet shop and the beautiful Astley Park give children meaningful real-world experiences that bring early years learning to life.

If you are looking for a nursery in Chorley where your child will be genuinely known and given the very best start in their early years, Partou Old School House Day Nursery & Pre-School is well worth a visit.

Review from M W (Father of Child) published on 3 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely amazing nursery. My girls have been there since they were 4 months old , they are due to leave later this year. Over that time they've grown so much , not just in size. All the staff are fantastic with the kids there. But there has to be massive praise aimed directly at the manager ,
Zoe.


I've seen many great changes over the years , the back garden being the biggest and best one yet.


Now with the extra help and managerial freedom afford by Partou , the nursery is only ever going to get better and better.


Just ask any of the other parents , they'll tell you exactly the same. Going to be a sad day when my two leave. We will all miss the place so much

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.917 for Partou Old School House Day Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (232 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.917
  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 Partou Old School House Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on 21 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 91 number of registered child places is 18.2, which has been reached with 21 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.
