Walton Lane is a Lancashire local authority maintained nursery school which offers high quality free nursery education to children from the term after their 3rd birthday. We believe that children have a natural enthusiasm for learning and our highly qualified staff support and encourage this by providing engaging and fun opportunities for children to develop their abilities in a supportive and caring environment.

Here at Walton Lane we follow the EYFS and the four guiding principles which support us in shaping all of our practice in the early years. The ways in which children engage with other people and their environment underpin learning and development across all the areas of the EYFS and support children in effective and motivated learning.

Children who have left care under a special guardianship order or child arrangement order in England or Wales. The funding equates to J302.10 per year if a child takes up their full 570 hours of free early education entitlement. We use Early Years Pupil Premium Grant to put in additional support for these children.
