What Ofsted said about Tottington

"Safety issues are given very high priority, both indoors and outdoors. Rigorous risk assessments are completed for the premises and outings. Staff are constantly vigilant in ensuring the premises and outdoor areas are secured and a record is maintained of persons who visit the nursery."

"Staff act as excellent role models and have very high expectations for children’s behaviour. They use superb routines and set appropriate boundaries, which are sensitively reinforced in line with the levels of children’s understanding and maturity."

"Children have formed solid relationships with staff, who smile and greet them warmly when they arrive."

Tottington Nursery School was established in 1990 by Sue and John Robinson, using their vast experience in both health and education. The nursery has always enjoyed an excellent reputation in the Bury area and in March 2008, Ofsted graded the nursery as Outstanding in all five areas of its inspection criteria. This is the second consecutive Ofsted inspection in which the nursery has achieved the highest grade possible.

Demand for places at the Tottington nursery had always been very high so they decided to expand. In 2004 Mulberry Bush Nursery, Whitefield was opened followed by Mulberry Bush Nursery, Walshaw in 2006. The knowledge and experience gained at Tottington Nursery School has ensured the same quality childcare is provided across the nursery group.

We employ committed, caring, qualified staff and they are the key to our success.  As a result we have a very consistent team dedicated to providing a welcoming and stimulating environment for young children.
