This paper examines the re/constructed role of nursery schools in their local communities over the past decade, exploring the unique, social justice contribution that Nursery Schools make to the early years sector. This research confirms that the role of the nursery school in supporting all children, but particularly those from socio-economically disadvantaged families, has expanded considerably in the past decade as a direct consequence of austerity policies.
