Review 1

Hydesville Tower School Nursery is quite simply the best nursery. I cannot rate it highly enough. My eldest son attended from 2018 and has continued to progress through the school, a decision we made after seeing the exemplary education and care he received at the very earliest experience of his formal education. He left for Reception with such a solid foundation of learning far exceeding that of his peers, this is credited to the nurturing staff- they truly care for each and every child. My youngest son is within the nursery setting now and I wouldn't have chosen a different provider for him, the staff cater to each child's individual needs. The introduction of the parents' app has been wonderful - giving parents daily picture/video updates of the children's activities, added to this is the use of another app where homework can be uploaded and feedback is given - a seamless progression into Reception. The new outdoor classroom has been carefully planned with Early Years as the focus. Thank you, Hydesville!”

Review 2

Hydesville adopts a family environment, which is what I feel critical to a successful school, to know its pupils and parents. I have the peace of mind that when I drop my children off in the morning that they are safe and happy and their educational needs are being met. The school provides a family atmosphere, the staff are helpful and always thinking of innovative fun ways to engage and educate the children.

My daughter has been at HTS since reception, has been and continues to be very happy there. The school is welcoming with small class groups and has a family feel. The staff get to know the children personally, as well as academically to accommodate their needs. The teachers are dedicated to their job of providing the very best high standard of education and this is exemplified in the excellent exam results. The children are all delightful , well-mannered and come out of school with smiles on their faces. I would thoroughly recommend Hydesville Tower School to prospective parents.
