Ankermoor Primary Academy
Welcome
Welcome to Our Pride Our Joy at Ankermoor Primary Academy.
We provide 24 nursery places for children who are aged two, three or four years of age and accept all funded options as well as chargeable sessions.
Additionally, we offer a Breakfast Club from 7.30 am throughout the school week which is available for all the Academy children.
Our Pride Our Joy also hold holiday clubs across Tamworth which are open to anyone who attends a Fierte Academy school.
Our delicious and healthy hot lunches are prepared by the Fierte Catering team who can cater for any dietary requirements your child may have, and our highly trained team can offer early support with any additional needs your child may have.
Nursery Information
In Our Pride Our Joy nurseries we follow a 'child initiated' curriculum which enables children to follow their own interests and learn through quality play, whilst being supported by qualified and experienced staff. Staff are trained to observe the children and look for 'teachable moments' in which to intervene and support the child to their next steps.
We have full access to the outdoor areas throughout the sessions and in all weathers, so children can choose their preferred area to learn within a well thought out, enabling environment.
Parents are kept informed of their child's progress through secure online accounts which they can read, enjoy and add to so that they can play a part in the 'learning journey' their child travels along whilst with us.
Breakfast Club
Breakfast club opens at 7:30 am and operates from the school hall.
Parents book places in advance to ensure our adult:child ratios are maintained at all times and qualified staff provide activities for the children to access.
A healthy breakfast choice is provided by the on site catering team.
Testimonials
My son joined OPOJ in September 2022 , I was very apprehensive as he had been at a private nursery since 6 months old . It was a big change for us all however the staff were welcoming & allowed us time to attend stay and play sessions etc before making the final decision .
My son often comes home telling us about his day & new things he has learnt & that is thanks to the staff . This is often extended with home learning opportunities too.
They have taken time to get to know not only us as parents but his grandparents too who support with drop off and pick up

My little girl aged 3 started at Ankermoor OPOJ in January and it was the first time she had been to any childcare setting so I was a little anxious. I shouldn't of been! She was made to feel so welcome and comfortable from the stay and play session that she started with no fuss. She absolutely loves attending nursery, the teachers are such an amazing team, approachable and understanding and go above and beyond for every child in their care. I'm so grateful that my daughter has had such a positive nursery journey.

When you trust others to look after your child as well as you do yourself, you know you’ve found the perfect nursery. Ankermoor has been that for my 3 daughters.
My youngest daughter adores nursery & her teachers. She happily goes in every day & leaves with a smile excited to tell me all she’s done & learnt. And I’m forever seeing progress.
I’d recommend the nursery to anyone! x
