Oliver Thomas Nursery School, East Ham in London has achieved the Inclusive School Award for the second time.

“This was the second IQM assessment for Oliver Thomas Nursery School. Oliver Thomas is a maintained, inclusive nursery school serving a diverse catchment area in the London Borough of Newham. Newham is the 3rd largest borough population in London. There is a wide range of backgrounds.

Oliver Thomas Nursery is very welcoming and has a warm, positive ethos with an open, friendly, happy atmosphere. The Headteacher, Centre Lead and Inclusion Manager lead by positive example and set the tone for the supportive, caring, framework, where inclusive values are fundamental. One obvious thing was the positive relationships between staff, staff and other stakeholders, and staff and pupils. Pupils and their families are genuinely at the heart of the school’s purpose and everything staff do is always for the benefit of the children”
