Welcome to Brightstart Montessori Nursery!

The Atrium, North Walsham and The Old School, Scottow

Brightstart provides a safe, prepared and calm environment in which children are free to learn naturally from their surroundings. We cater for children between 2 years old and school age.

We have been established in North Walsham since 1996. Our second Nursery opened in the refurbished former Scottow School, The Fairstead, Scottow in September 2008. Our North Walsham Nursery has been based in purpose-built facilities at The Atrium, Spenser Avenue since January 2012.

We are Ofsted registered. Both Nurseries received very positive Ofsted reports at their most recent inspections. (North Walsham EY435785 / 2736133 : November 2018, Scottow EY375401: November 2019.)

If you are interested in Brightstart, please contact us to arrange a visit. We can show you around the Nursery, answer any questions that you may have and give you a registration form to take away and complete.
