Nursery (Ages 3-4)

Our Nursery at the Richard Pate School, situated on the school site in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, is a friendly, happy and welcoming setting for children from 3 years. We are dedicated to providing the highest possible standards and early years care and education.

The Nursery is located next to the main school in its own grounds where the children enjoy free flow between the very well-resourced inside and outside areas.

We are registered with the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) and are regularly inspected under the same criteria as those used for OFSTED inspections. In March 2020, we were delighted to be rated ‘Excellent’ in all areas.

Open Mornings: Friday 6th and Saturday 7th February 2026

Come and join us at our next Open Mornings on Friday 6th February (a normal school working day) or Saturday 7th February. These are a great opportunity for families to come and meet staff and pupils, have a tour of the school and grounds, and learn about how we can provide the ideal start to your child’s education.

For Rendcomb College families

We are very saddened to hear the news that Rendcomb College will close at the end of this academic year. We understand that this is an extremely unsettling and stressful time for the pupils, families and staff affected and we are here to offer our support.

If you would like to arrange a meeting with our Headteacher, Mr Morgan, and have a tour of the school, please call 01242 522086 or email admissions@richardpate.co.uk
