Book a tour with us today, discover the private school nursery difference
Choosing a Nursery can be tricky, even if you’ve done it before. Each child is different, so finding the perfect Nursery requires research, and you need to ask the right questions.
Children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and inspired. At The Nursery at Lichfield Cathedral School, we create a warm, family‑centred environment where every child is known, valued, and encouraged to explore the world around them.

A typical day in the life of The Nursery at Lichfield Cathedral School
Child‑led exploration and discovery time
Children begin the day choosing activities that interest them, helping them settle calmly and build independence.
Outdoor learning in our secure rural grounds
Daily time outside gives children space to explore nature, move freely, and enjoy hands‑on discovery, especially during Forest School sessions.
Creative arts, music, and sensory play
Painting, role‑play, music, and tactile activities encourage imagination and confident self‑expression.
Early literacy foundations
Storytime, phonics games, and early mark‑making introduce language skills in a playful, engaging way. Regular sessions with the School Librarian develop story skills.
Early numeracy foundations
Counting games, puzzles, and practical activities using the Ten Towns scheme help children develop number confidence.
Mindfulness and emotional development
Meditation, yoga and relaxation techniques help children recognise feelings and build self‑regulation.
Social and communication skills
Circle time, turn‑taking, and group play nurture empathy, and positive friendships. Lingotots weekly French lessons offer an early introduction to languages.
Physical development and movement
Outdoor play, structured movement sessions, and dance support coordination, balance, and gross‑motor skills.
