Welcome to Etherley Lane Nursery & Primary Federation

Thank you for visiting our website!

At Etherley Lane Nursery and Primary Federation, we know that we are privileged to be part of your child’s lifelong learning journey. We know that in our midst we have the future! If your child, at heart is a dancer, we want them to dance! We want them to boogie like Ashley Banjo to ballet-like Dacey Bussell. A singer, we want them to sing and perform – from Stormzy to Sinatra, P!NK, Prince or Pavarotti! If music’s their thing we want them to play and sing!

If your child is the next Alex Scott or David Weir we want to teach them confidence, skills in sport and the ability to write and talk about it with passion. If your child is the next Mary Anning or Alan Turing we want to deliver a rich and full experience to develop their skills to think scientifically, notice pattern and draw on maths and computing skills to make links, all the time encouraging them to be brave, make discoveries and believe in themselves.
