St Mark'S Preschool was inspected by Ofsted on 4 November 2021 and received an overall rating of Good.

They squeal with delight as staff join in their running games outside and when staff use exaggerated expressions in their voices while reading stories to them. The youngest children enjoy moving toys and equipment around their large playroom, negotiating obstacles as they confidently carry objects."
