We are thrilled and very proud to announce that Oaklands Nursery School has been named an Early Years Stronger Practice Hub—one of just 18 new hubs across England, bringing the national network to 36.

This recognition reflects our commitment to excellence in early years education and our dedication to supporting high-quality practice across the sector. As a Stronger Practice Hub, we look forward to working with colleagues, sharing evidence-informed approaches, and helping to improve outcomes for young children and their families throughout our region.

We would like to thank our staff, children, families, and partners whose support and commitment have made this achievement possible.
