For many years, Hurlingham Prep School in Putney Bridge Road has provided a first-class education for pupils aged 4 to 11 at the main Hurlingham site on the Putney Bridge Road. They are delighted that they are now able to provide families with the option of provision for children aged 2 to 4 in their Nursery in Gwendolen Avenue.

Children may join at any time after their second birthday, and there is a guaranteed offer of a place at the main school for all nursery pupils.

Children learn through a combination of teacher-initiated and child-led activities and, of course, play! In addition to the nursery-based provision, all pupils in the Pre-School are also able to spend one day a week at Forest School on Wimbledon Common.

In addition to the 34 weeks of academic term time there is also the option of an additional 16 weeks of ad hoc holiday club. The Early Bird option allows for a 7.45am drop off and pupils are also able to stay to Tea Club until 6pm.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As parents, we could not ask for a more nurturing and happy learning environment for our daughter. The teachers and staff are fantastic with the children and parents alike. Our daughter hated daycare nursery, so we went down the nanny route, but she loves her days at Hurlingham. An excellent start to
our daughter's education.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My three-year-old son has been at the nursery for over a year now and he loves it. He comes back home every day with a big smile on his face and with new things to share about his day. The curriculum is so wide and varied that there is never a dull day. The children engage in activities such as multi-sports,
yoga, forest school, cooking etc. The nursey also has high calibre warm and loving staff who are extremely engaged and attentive. We feel that the nursery is really preparing our son for the big school both academically through constructive play and socially by building his confidence around others.

Hurlingham Nursery School is everything I could have wished for my daughter. A nurturing, happy place with passionate, knowledgeable and highly professional teachers. The environment is welcoming and practical with exciting spaces which they use creatively. Forest school is a highlight for preschool.
The children learn in context, doing all manner of activities with staff who see them as little bundles of joyful potential.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.933)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.933) out of 10 for Hurlingham Nursery School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.933 for Hurlingham Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (222 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 238 Ratings = 4.933
  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 Hurlingham Nursery School is based on 20 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 100 number of registered child places is 20, which has been reached with 20 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.

Job Title: Nursery Teacher Joined: 2006

I have been hugely passionate about working with young children and this made my decision to qualify as a Montessori Teacher. I have been working in the Hurlingham Nursery for 14years and through this time my two children attended this Nursery and still have many fond memories of it. I’m passionate about the children’s well-being, happiness and learning and I have spent the majority of my teaching career working with children in this wonderful phase. I’m trained in mindfulness and music which I share with school and children as part of my daily routine while teaching. I believe that simple mindfulness practices are essential learning for our children, who are growing up in a turbulent world. They can help kids release anxiety, improve their ability to focus, and develop compassion and empathy for others. What more valuable skills can we give them?
