We would like to welcome you and your child to our Uley Pre-School at Uley C of E Primary School.

Uley C of E Primary School

Uley School is a welcoming, inclusive family school with a strong Christian ethos, a sense of community and a commitment to excellence for all children in our care.  We aim to ensure that each one of our children feels happy and safe, and is enthusiastic, secure and confident.  We do this by nurturing each child’s uniqueness and responding to individual needs.  We want each child to flourish in their learning and to be the best they can be, now and for their future.

Our Pre-School

At Uley Pre-School, we embrace our vision to "Live, Learn and Flourish" by providing an environment where every child is given the opportunity to be the best they can be, succeed and flourish. Our Pre-School children are integrated into Class 1, alongside our Reception children, allowing them to access to a play-based curriculum as they would in other pre-school setting. This integration helps to foster a sense of belonging and encourages early learning through shared experiences, ensuring each child feels part of our nurturing school community.  It also enables a seamless transition in to their reception year.

Class 1 caters for Pre-School and Reception aged children. The children work together for some tasks and in separate age appropriate groups for other tasks. Our excellent facilities mean we can provide a wealth of play and learning opportunities both indoors and outdoors and our talented, teacher-led team ensure that every child has the best learning opportunities to help them develop individually.

It is important for parents and carers to feel they can come and talk to school staff.  The school staff are in the gate every morning and are happy to have a quick chat.  We are always happy to set time aside to meet with you for a catch-up should more time be needed.
