All Saints Pre-School
GoodBirth to 5Open for decades
A pre-school in Farnborough for children from birth to 5, open 09:30 to 14:30, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in June 2024. Open since 2000, with 35 places.
What you might pay
This setting does not publish its fees, and no national dataset holds them. This is what childcare costs across the council, as a starting point for the call.
What childcare usually costs in Hampshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Hampshire from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

What it is like to attend
Children demonstrate that they feel happy as they rush into the welcoming preschool. The experienced and committed manager and her staff provide an inclusive environment for all children and their families. Effective settling-in processes, including home visits, enable staff to build early attachments with children. This helps children to feel safe and secure.
All children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities
(SEND), demonstrate a positive attitude to their learning and make good progress from their starting points. Regular assessments of children's learning enable leaders and staff to quickly identify when children would benefit from further support. They make timely referrals and work well with other professionals to provide targeted support. This helps children with SEND to rapidly close gaps in their learning.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- focus curriculum plans more precisely within the garden area, particularly for those children who prefer to learn outdoors n support staff to develop a more consistent approach to managing children's behaviour and helping them understand why rules and boundaries exist.

Still missing for All Saints Pre-School
- What it costs
- Funded hours
- Youngest age taken
- Meals
- Nappies
- Waiting list
No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Is there a place for my child's age? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
- Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
- Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
