Pangbourne House opened in September 2015 and follows a Montessori ethos. It’s headmistress Sophia Russell-Cobb is a well-known figure having previously ran Ladbroke Square nursery for over 30 years and creates a warm, supportive and happy learning environment. This nursery benefits her experience as well as from spacious and well-designed learning area on two levels. This includes covered outdoor provision, a indoor hall and dedicated art room. The nursery is warm and friendly and provides a stimulating environment as well as excellent teaching following the Montessori ethos.
The recent 2024 Ofsted report awarded the nursery ‘Outstanding’ in all areas and they were especially impressed with the ‘exceptionally ambitious curriculum’ and fantastically confident and well-behaved children demonstrating both great empathy and politeness. Children with special educational needs are very well supported and there is a dedicated multi-sensory room to provide a calm, quiet space. Specialist teachers in French, Spanish, Ballet and Yoga. The children come out with very high levels of development especially in early reading, writing and number. Classes are mixed age in keeping with the Montessori ethos and there are 3 intakes, September, January and April. Children attending for full day need to bring their own packed lunches. There are 2 fully qualified teachers on staff and the other 8 members of staff hold appropriate early years qualifications. Most children go onto local independent (Notting Hill Prep, Basset House, Wetherby, Pembridge, Norland Place) and state schools (Colville, Thomas Jones, Fox).
