Children at Maplehurst Nursery in Hastings

(Photograph) - Children at Maplehurst Nursery in Hastings, East Sussex, and nursery manager Jean Tindal celebrate passing their latest Ofsted inspection with flying colours. Six months ago financial problems nearly forced the ten-year-old nursery to close, despite its excellent record in early education. But East Sussex Education Authority and the local Partnership kept it open and are managing the nursery until it is ready for private or voluntary status. Photo Mark Dimmock
