Where this came from
The outlined line is the one the price was taken from.
Funded hours
Worth knowing. The registration fee is applicable for non-funded hours only.
What childcare usually costs in Warwickshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Warwickshire from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

What it is like to attend
Children thrive in this exceptionally high-quality provision. Staff take time and care to set up exciting play invitations that develop children's curiosity and extend their inquisitive nature. Staff develop warm and trusting relationships with parents. They hold purposeful conversations to gather detailed information about the children.
Staff then use this knowledge, coupled with their own professional expertise, to deliver finely tuned teaching to meet each child's needs. The curriculum provides excellent support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities
(SEND). Leaders and staff have exceptionally high expectations, and all children, including those with SEND, make extremely strong progress.

Still missing for Clopton Nursery Trust
- Youngest age taken
- 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
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- Is £22.50 a day still the rate? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- How do you apply my funded hours? 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.
