Childcare in Chertsey
Chertsey has 8 day nurseries, 3 pre-schools, 5 school nursery classes and 6 after-school clubs. Ofsted has inspected 9 of them and rated 8 Good or better. 14 have never been inspected, which usually means recently registered. Across Surrey there are 40 places per 100 children under five, better supplied than England as a whole at 32.
Places per 100 under-fives is registered capacity at nurseries, pre-schools and childminders across Surrey, divided by the children aged 0 to 4 who live there at the 2021 Census. It compares areas; it is not a count of free places today. It also leaves out the 184 school nursery classes across Surrey, because nobody publishes how many children they take.
