Glenesk School & Nursery

My child has had a fantastic time in Glenesk nursery. This was her first nursery experience and the staff have been incredibly supportive of both my child and me. Mrs Barnett has gone out of her way to get to know my child, learning her favourite colour so that the colour is available to draw with, colour with, etc., and encouraging her out of her comfort zone in doing activities with increasing independence. I've been really impressed with the progress that she has made, such as her improved knife cutting skills from weekly cookery sessions. I feel completely comfortable leaving my children in the care of any of the staff at Glenesk. Everyone is so warm and friendly. The regular updates on the app show how happy my child is at nursery and how much she adores her teacher.

The school facilities are good, the pastoral care is excellent and the food is also high standard.

We have been really happy with this nursery and the care our child receives. What stands out most is the genuinely individual approach they take with each child. The staff invest time in getting to know each child well, building strong relationships that help children feel secure and understood.

The school has a very open and welcoming atmosphere, with as much of an open-door policy as is possible, whilst keeping the building safe. Parents are encouraged to see what is happening around the school, which is reassuring and demonstrates the confidence the team has in the quality of their care.

I have been impressed by the staffing levels. There always appear to be enough adults present to provide attentive care, it feels like there are often more staff than the minimum required ratio. This creates a calm, supportive environment where children receive plenty of attention and support.

Glenesk is such a wonderfully nurturing school, it has a very unique feel to it where every child is made to feel special. My daughter is so happy and thriving every day, we couldn't be happier as parents!

We have had a very good experience at Glenesk Nursery and now my son is in the preschool class. My son is thriving and learning so much every day. Lovely teachers and a great school community. The activities are so varied from forest school, ballet, cooking, sports and more!

Thank you, Glenesk, for all that you do!

Our son moved to Glenesk School & Nursery in September on turning two from another nursery. He is extremely happy there and this is all down to the nursery staff and wider school community for welcoming him into the nursery, and us too as parents. The communication we receive is excellent and we get a real insight into his days at the nursery. We could not be happier with our decision and, as one of the youngest, it is so lovely seeing him grow in confidence week-by-week. We cannot fault it.

A fabulous, nurturing school. We couldn’t be happier and our three year old son is loving it having been there full time since his 2nd birthday. The staff are all so caring. The facilities are excellent, especially the swimming pool. Best decision we’ve made for our son.

Glenesk School & Nursery provides a wonderfully supportive, child-led environment for our littlest of people to experience new things and to grow in confidence as they learn to understand the world around them. The Nursery staff are wonderful and parents and children feel very much part of the whole school community. In such an important time in our children's lives, Glenesk provides a secure base for them to settle and grow.

We joined Glenesk School & Nursery in January having moved from another local nursery after lockdown. The staff from the Head to the teaching staff to the support staff are all incredible. Our son loves going in and the activities and learning seem to be endless fun. What a fantastic Nursery, we couldn't be happier.

We joined the nursery in January after a move from London, and we couldn’t be more delighted with Glenesk. Our son is thriving, which is a direct reflection of the rich curriculum and a team who put their heart and souls into the school, and we really feel part of a community that is very unique. We are excited to continue our Glenesk Journey with a start in Rising Reception in Sept.

As a mother of three, I have had children at various different schools and nurseries over the years and I can honestly say that Glenesk is by far the most caring and nurturing environment my children have experienced. The quality of teaching is outstanding, the staff are lovely and couldn’t do any more to help.

Such a lovely school with great, caring staff and fabulous facilities. Both my children have attended and have enjoyed the variety and love the care givers/teachers. Swimming is a highlight for children over 3.

Probably the best nursery in Surrey. After scouring every nursery I finally decided to allow my child to choose his own nursery after attending multiple tots and toddlers sessions at multiple different nurseries in the area. My son chose a Glenesk without any hesitation. The academic capability that they invest is incredible, even for young ages, and they manage to do it through varied and fun activities. I love the focus on social behaviours, teamwork and kindness. All the children are so polite and happy! My favourite part about Glenesk is that they are catered entirely for this age group and have a full variety timetable for the children full of activities like ballet, sports, yoga, cooking, forestry school, drama, gym etc. And they have their own wonderful large heated indoor swimming pool and so my child swims every week from the age of 3. The size of the school is perfect, not too big and not too small, and the teachers and headmistress are truly incredible. My son is so happy!

Fabulous nursery and pre-prep school. My son absolutely loves it here! The staff are kind and nurturing and are really helping my little boy develop his confidence. He calls Glenesk his ‘lovely school’.

Glenesk is an outstanding school. I feel so lucky to have my son here. He always is so delighted to be there and reviewing the online journal of his day to day activities is reassuring and wonderful to see his progress. The staff are always professional and compassionate.

I couldn’t have found a warmer more nurturing environment for my daughter who, at the hands of the Glenesk staff, has grown into a confident and very happy little girl - we could not have asked for more.

This is a lovely caring, nurturing and thoughtful little school. I have 2 girls here and both are extremely happy. The teaching is of very high quality with a real focus on the individual. The facilities are great, and the whole school is set in beautiful surroundings where the children's imaginations are constantly encouraged. We love it here and our 3rd little one will be starting in a few year's time too!

Glenesk is a very caring environment that allows your child to learn and grow at their own pace. The space in the nursery is light and open, with excellent age-appropriate equipment, leading into a secure and fun outdoor area. As parents, we could not be happier with the excellent start Glenesk has given our children.

Our daughter thrived at the nursery in Glenesk which prepared her brilliantly for the next stage in her education. We cannot speak more highly of the staff who are caring, warm and extremely engaging. The nursery offers a wide range of stimulating and fun activities including ballet, swimming and forest school. The inclusive and fun atmosphere is extremely infectious to children and parents alike. Glenesk is a nursery in which the individual really does matter.
