A VILLAGE preschool is celebrating after being rated ‘outstanding’ by education inspectors.

St Georges Pre-School was given the high rating in every area by Ofsted.

The status is the highest that preschools and schools can achieve, meaning that the education is of an exceptionally high quality.

The group, based at the community centre, was taken over by new manager Hannah Tedder in September.

Hannah, aged 29, also known for her popular baby and toddler classes Musical Monkeys, said: “We are so happy and delighted with this.

“After all the hard work we have put in over the past few months, we are over the moon with the grade.

“We love our jobs and it’s nice to be recognised for all our hard work.”

Ofsted inspectors said the Willow Close preschool provides a ‘rich, fun-filled learning environment where children flourish’.
