Criteria for Admission to Nursery

Children are entitled to 15 free hours of Nursery provision per week. We offer free part time and flexi time Nursery places with an option to pay a top up fee to increase to a full time place (details of the top up fees are available from the school office). Free full time places are offered only to children who meet certain criteria, details of which are given on our application form, also available from the school office.

Some FREE full time places are available if children meet the following criteria;

  1. Children who are looked after, or who have an allocated social worker who has written support of the need for a full-time place as part of the Child’s Plan at that school.
  2. Children who are recommended a full-time place by a Team Around the Child (TAC), Locality or Disability Panel.
  3. Children in circumstances where the Headteacher considers a full-time place should be provided. To ensure quality across the borough the following criteria must be met first:
    1. children who are eligible for free school meals or newly arrived or asylum seeker
    2. evidence to demonstrate that home circumstances could significantly affect a child’s well being
  4.  In line with DfE guidelines, we are now offering 30 hours of free flexible educational childcare for 3 to 4 year olds. Please apply via this link https://www.gov.uk/30-hours-free-childcare this will depend on you or your partner’s employment  income/s.

Note: Children who are accepted into the Nursery do not have an automatic right to a place in our Reception classes.
