Nursery school and Nursery class?
The feedback from the topic test last week highlighted a key area which needed recapping. 
Nursery school vs Nursery Class
A Nursery class is usually part of a primary school and will typically be lead by a nursery teacher. This type of nursery is term time only and normally children in a nursery class will move on to the attached primary school. 

A Nursery school generally functions the same as a nursery class but maintained nursery schools are not typically part of a primary school. Nursery schools can be Maintained or independent.
