The Manor Tree Group was previously the 17th largest nursery operator in the UK and Ireland, with 806 places (Nursery Chains, summer 2005). Its five standalone nurseries are in West Norwood in London, and Binfield, Iver and Slough in Berkshire. It also has three nursery units attached to independent schools in Berkshire and Surrey.
CfBT owns three nurseries in Lancashire - in Chorley, Horwich and Lancaster - and a fourth setting in Middlesbrough, Teesside. It currently offers a total of 320 places. The company also owns three primary schools.
CfBT's acquisition of the Manor Tree settings increases its total number of registered nursery places to 1,126.
