Lincolnshire Maintained Nursery School Federation is made up of Gainsborough Nursery School and Wyndham Park Nursery School who formally federated on 2^nd October 2023 after a 2-year period of working together.  They share a strong vision and belief that getting early years education right makes a lifelong difference to the children that attend our schools.

Each school retains its individual identity and works to meet the needs of its community whilst at the same time working together to ensure that the very best practice is shared and the strength of the federation is utilised.

An Executive Headteacher oversees both schools.  Each school has a Deputy Headteacher that is responsible for the day to day running of the schools.

In September 2023 the Federation agreed an MOU with Kingsdown Nursery School in Lincoln to further share an Executive Headteacher and if the MOU is successful the hope is the relationship will be formalised in the future and the federation will expand.
