Welcome to Dorking Nursery School and Mole Valley Family Centre!
Consistently rated ʻOutstandingʼ we are the only maintained nursery school in Dorking for children aged 2-5 years and have been at the heart of the Dorking community since 1939. Our Family Centre is located at Goodwyns Road and provides targetted support to families who need it most. We offer support and advice as well as activities and courses.
We embrace every child's individual needs and our diversity makes us unique. All our children benefit from exceptional, specially trained teachers and supportive experienced early years staff.
Our focus on education and learning creates an environment where every child and family can achieve their potential. We help every child to flourish and blossom giving them the best start in life.
Dorking is fortunate to have one of Surrey's four maintained nursery schools in the heart of the town. As a early education provider, it differs from the rest of the sector as it is legally constituted as a school, benefitting from a Headteacher who is a qualified teacher and early years specialist, a governing body, delegated budget and other members of staff who are qualified teachers and early years practitioners.
