Nursery Chains supplement - Autumn 2013

The business outlook for the UK's nursery groups is looking decidedly positive, as our comprehensive, annual guide to this vital part of the sector reveals.

Once again we have compiled a top 25 ranking of chains, highlighting which companies have added settings and places in the last 12 months, and which companies are contributing to the growing ‘corporatisation’ of the market. Check out our expert analysis on this ranking to gain insights into the current market dynamics.

Along with this is our league table of Ofsted rankings, providing a unique indicator of the extent to which leading groups are achieving quality across their multiple sites.
