His teachers go above and beyond every single day. They create such a fun, nurturing, and engaging environment, and it's clear how passionate they are about what they do. My son talks about his teachers constantly and looks forward to going to school every morning, which says everything.
Communication with parents has also been fantastic, and I always feel informed and included. I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful preschool with such amazing staff. Not only did they support my son they massively supported me.Thank you for everything you do - you've made such a positive impact on my son and our family. Highly recommend!
This nursery was highly recommended to me and I can definitely see why! Very interactive with the children. My daughter has only recently started and she absolutely loves going and she is thriving in the environment. All staff are lovely and reassuring and couldn't recommend this nursery enough.
Wonderful setting and what an incredible preschool. Such a nurturing environment with a warm atmosphere, staff are very friendly and communication is excellent. Excel in all areas , cannot fault them at all.
My child has been attending at this pre school for 2 years. It is brilliant. The setting is wonderful but what makes it so fantastic is the level of care and support provided by the educators. It's incredible. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this setting. It is truly wonderful and I will be sad when my child leaves.
A fantastic preschool, like a family away from home. Our twins have flourished and grown so much since attending and they adore going. It's great to know they're cared for and loved by incredibly caring and professional staff. The setting has lots of great variety in activities and toys and has allowed them to create a real sense of learning through play. 100% recommend!
Our child has learned so much since starting here - not only educationally but socially & emotionally too. They were incredibly supportive with potty training, which made such a difference for us. We've seen such a boost in his confidence , independence & social skills.
A special mention to his key worker, who he absolutely adores. The bond they've built is so lovely to see & gives us so much reassurance knowing how happy he is there.
The outdoor play area is fantastic & the regular photo updates on the app are such a lovely touch, allowing us to see what he's been doing throughout the day.
We are so grateful for the positive impact they've had on our little one. We would highly recommend this preschool to anyone looking for a warm, nurturing, & supportive environment for their child
I really enjoy the app updates and the link with home learning . My son gets to explore a range of activities to support his learning and development
The whole team in bishop Cornish preschool is amazing! Both children have now attended and have absolutely loved it. I know my child is safe and genuinely cared for!
My little boy has been attending the nursery for 2 years. He was nonverbal but has come on amazingly. He has began to write him name and do his letters. They have helped him become a confident child. He enjoys going and asks to go on his days off. The staff are polite and friendly and the setting is well set up, safe and clean
An outstanding preschool!! My daughter started here in September and absolutely loves it. The facilities are great and the care/understanding of the staff is amazing. They always go above and beyond for the children which is wonderful to see.
Staff are friendly & recognise the nuances of each child's needs to support development & celebrate individual progress. This support extends to the home in a holistic way as we too benefit from their advice.
Engaging phonics & numeracy activities, alongside unique songs & characters have instilled a love of learning in our child, as well as a confidence & readiness for school. The focus on developing emotional literacy & understanding feelings will also support her transition to school & beyond.
Organisation & communication is excellent, the setting is immaculate & they have robust allergy & safeguarding policies in place.
Most importantly, the children all seem so happy! Our child loves going to preschool & talks about her friends & teachers as though they're family. She has absolutely thrived at Bishop Cornish and we couldn't be more grateful.
Wonderful nursery with amazing staff. The effort they put in to making sure all needs are met for your child is outstanding. I wouldn't want my child anywhere else. I cannot fault the staff at all. They all do their bit in making sure your child is emotionally supported and happy. Nothing worse when your a parent and your child gets upset when you drop them off, but then you get lovely little updates and messages showing you how wonderful your is doing and that they've settled when youve left them so your not worried throughout the day. The facilities are lovely. Having a lovely playground and woods to go to. Thank you for all your hard
Our daughter attends Bishop Cornish preschool and absolutely loves it. The staff have been incredibly supportive and helpful towards us and our child with health needs. Our daughter has grown in confidence since attending and is always keen to share what exciting activities she has been up to that day. She is always learning and really thrives there!
This is an absolutely wonderful preschool! All three of my children have attended and my youngest will be finishing this year. As always their methods and attention to the children is exemplary. The teachers are all extremely lovely and you can see they care about each and every child. My children have thrived there!
My son is in his third and final year at the preschool and he has come on leaps and bounds. Couldn't have asked for a better preschool to prepare him for the next step into primary school!
My little girl had quite a difficult time initially with transitioning, and they were just so lovely. They made sure they knew activities which she liked (like looking after babies) which they would do straight away with her to make sure she settled. They also did a home visit to try and to help build their relationship.
Their communication is outstanding, we get so many updates, including photos and sometimes videos, showing us the wonderful things the children are doing. It's so lovely to see.
They really push the students with their reading and numeracy skills, and I can't.
I could not believe what my little girl is able to do now. But they also focus on talking about feelings, which has helped us at home.
I couldn't recommend this preschool more, it is fantastic.
Love love this preschool. My twin girls have been attending Bishop Cornish Preschool since January 2023. They have come on leaps and bounds in every aspect and this is down to the amazing staff that work there. The staff are super attentive and caring. One of my girls has some health issues and they have been so helpful and supportive with this. My girls start primary school in September, even though I'll be so sad they won't be at the preschool anymore but I know they'll be ready for the next steps and that's thanks to the preschool.
The preschool staff are genuinely kind and loving people who look after the children as their own, whilst always maintaining professional procedures and safeguarding. I am a huge helicopter parent. My children have never, once, been in the care of anyone other than myself, my husband and our mothers. I trust Bishop Cornish Preschool wholeheartedly. Both of our sons have SEN needs, our eldest is moderately deaf and our youngest has a speech delay. As an educator myself, I have a working understanding of their needs, but from a parental point of view, the pastoral support which has been offered to us has been outstanding, without hesitation. Our eldest has now moved on to Bishop Cornish School with his friends whom he developed a strong bond with, thanks to the amazing social work the preschool staff do with the children. All of the children know each other so well and find so much joy in spending time together. This really is a super special setting.
Bishop Cornish Preschool is absolutely amazing. From the extensive welcome materials for starters, to the staff’s over and above attitude. My son loves it! There is a brilliant mixture of play with educational activities. My son’s confidence keeps growing day by day. I would highly recommend this preschool.
You really are the superheroes.
