Context - Roxbourne Primary School was successful in securing a £150,000 grant from the Department for Education (DfE) to open a School-Based Nursery, serving children from 9 months - 3 years old. We are proud to say that Roxbourne was the only school in the London Borough of Harrow to submit a successful application – a significant milestone for our school and community. 

The Space - To make this possible, the school will be investing approximately £220,000 to remodel a dedicated area of our school building. The new nursery will transform underused spaces into a fresh, open-plan space of around 155 square meters. The setting will benefit from its own entrance at the front of the school and a dedicated outdoor learning area, designed with our youngest children in mind. Below is an of the current works - as of Friday 1st August 2025!

Planned Opening - We are currently working towards an official opening date of Monday 29th September 2025. At launch, we intend to start small, and term-time only, ensuring the highest standards of care and provision. We will begin by offering places for:

• 6 children aged 9 months – 2 years, and

• 10 children aged 2 – 3 years.

In time, we plan to expand our offer to:

• 12 places for children aged 9 months – 2 years, and

• 20 places for children aged 2 – 3 years.
