Norcot Early Years Centre is a large, outstanding (OFSTED January 2012) state run children's centre and nursery school for 3 - 5 year olds with 180 part-time places. We also have 50 day care places for 0 - 5 year olds and provide wraparound care from 8am – 6pm. We are sited in Tilehurst, Reading near the river in the Thames Valley, west of London and we are part of a mixed socio-economic and cultural community.

The centre provides a broad, balanced curriculum following the framework of the revised Early Years Foundation Stage with a strong emphasis on outdoor learning delivered through our innovative Learning Through Nature programme as featured on the good practice pages of the Ofsted website.  Each child and their family are encouraged to work in partnership with staff to build a learning journal as a record of their development and progress. We have a well developed Special Needs Policy and practice, ensuring early identification, support, planning and evaluation. Families are closely involved and work with the centre or outside professionals where needed.

As a Children’s Centre, we offer a range of services including support with speech and language from our speech and language therapist, family support groups, parenting classes, family learning, toddler groups, baby clinics and a father's group.

We are constantly developing the centre to maximise its potential as a learning environment.
