St George's Pre School
OutstandingBirth to 5Open for decades
A pre-school in Rugby for children from birth to 5, open 09:00 to 15:00, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Outstanding by Ofsted in June 2023. Open since 2002, with 24 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 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.

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
Leaders and staff enable children to develop exceptionally close relationships with staff and their peers in this caring pre-school. They separate confidently from their parents and eagerly greet their friends and the staff. Staff provide children with familiar routines that help children feel incredibly secure. On arrival, children become involved in recognising their name to self-register. Children then competently label and store away their lunch boxes before enthusiastically choosing from the enticing learning opportunities on offer.
All children thrive and demonstrate confidence as they engage in circle time. They are keen to say 'hello' to their friends, using a range of different languages.
Children enthusiastically volunteer to share and explain the pre-school rules to the group. They demonstrate a strong understanding of expected behaviour. For example, children know that they should walk inside to avoid bumping into others and to keep everyone safe.

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.
