A recently opened children’s nursery has received a glowing report from education inspectors.

The Cavendish Lodge Nursery in Streatham was given top marks by the national education inspectorate Ofsted in August.

It is one of just a handful of nurseries in Lambeth to receive the coveted "outstanding" status.

The nursery, which was set up by husband and wife Kevin and Jodie Potter in 2007, cares for 70 children aged between six months and five years old.

Mr Potter said: "I feel so proud of the team because they do the hardest job in the world and I do not think they even appreciate the strength of the Ofsted report.

"It means so much to everyone. It is what we have been striving for but to actually get it is a completely different thing."
