Nursery School

In the Nursery School, the earliest a place can be offered is the term after a child's 3rd birthday.

We aim to admit children by the term before their 4th birthday.

In line with the county admissions policy, children are accepted for a minimum of 6 terms unless they are transferring from another Nursery School out of the area. Children are initially offered a part-time place for either 5 mornings or 5 afternoons per week. If spaces permit, children are offered a full-time place during the term of their 5th birthday. In some circumstances, a full-time place may be offered earlier. In cases where there are insufficient places, the County Admissions Policy for Nursery Schools and Classes is referred to.

There are a planned number of places for children with special educational needs. The School Governors meet each term to decide on the admissions for these places where they consider requests from Health and Social Services specialists.

Parents are informed of the availability of a place for their child during the half-term prior to admission.

Daycare

In the Daycare, children can be admitted from their 3rd birthday.

Priority will be given to children who are or will be attending the Nursery School. Consideration is also given to special educational needs, personal circumstances, and the length of time on the waiting list.
