Storal, a nursery group which operates 27 nurseries across the East Midlands, has been named ‘Nursery Group of the Year (Medium)’ at the 2024 Nursery Management Today Awards (NMT Awards).
This is the second year in a row that Storal has won the sought-after Nursery Group of the Year Award, which is testament to the consistency and hard work of its nursery teams and the high-quality care and early education it provides.
The company saw off strong competition from rival companies across the country to win the award which recognises and celebrates the achievement of leading nursery providers across the UK.
Storal, which recently expanded its presence in the region following the acquisition of Long Eaton based Children 1st Day Nurseries, operates nurseries in Woodville (Derbyshire), Stamford, Lincoln, Sutton in Ashfield, Bilborough, Toton, Plumtree, Newark, Grantham, Chesterfield, Clowne, Long Eaton, Syston, Hathern, Shepshed, Birstall and Leicester city centre. All nurseries are judged to be either Good or Outstanding by Ofsted.
On receiving the award, Sarah Mackenzie, CEO of Storal, said: “This incredible achievement is a reflection of the care, dedication, and expertise of our amazing teams across all our nurseries. We are focused on providing the best possible nursery provision for our children, and that wouldn’t be possible without the commitment of our teams. It is a moment of huge pride for everyone associated with Storal.”
