Dear Parents and Carers,
Firstly, I would like to thank you all for your continued support and commitment to our Nursery School, especially with your heart-warming feedback during our recent Ofsted inspection on 23rd April 2025.
Our Ofsted Inspection
I’m delighted to share with you that we maintained the high standards identified in our previous inspection*. The wonderful team here showed the inspectors exactly what they do so well to ensure your children thrive here, and I couldn’t be prouder of them – please join me in congratulating them on their brilliance!
You can read the full report here.
*As you may be aware, Ofsted is moving away from single-word judgements, so you may notice a change in how we refer to our inspection outcomes. However, we are proud to continue meeting Ofsted’s highest standards since 2016.

School of Sanctuary
I’m thrilled to share that Filton Avenue Nursery School is now the first Nursery in Bristol to receive the School of Sanctuary award – this is a fantastic achievement and celebrates our inclusive value that says: “everyone is welcome” and recognises the warm, welcoming environment we strive to create each day.
Finally, you may notice a few changes to our website. We have recently updated our vision and values page – we’d love to hear what you think!
Thank you again for your continued support.
With warm wishes,
Kate Tector, Headteacher of Filton Avenue Nursery School
