A nursery has achieved an "outstanding" Ofsted report across all areas.

Northfleet Nursery School near Gravesend achieved the rating after an inspection in July.

The nursery is a "maintained" school which means it is owned by trustees and managed by governors.

It is the fifth consecutive report where the nursery has achieved the top rating.

Neerasha Singh, head teacher of the school, said the result is a "testament to the hard work" that is put in by staff, parents and governors.

She said: "Northfleet Nursery is truly a special place where children first learn to play then play to learn; where days are filled with wonderful magic memories.

"The impact of COVID had taken a toll on our children's mental health and well-being therefore we prioritised practice ensuring healthy, happy little minds."
