Our Nursery Class is called ‘Ladybirds’.

September Admissions 2027 

There is one Nursery intake in September each year. Children will only be admitted at other points in the year, if spaces become available. 

A child will be eligible for admission to the nursery from the term after they turn 3 years old. Admission will be subject to an application being made and places available.   

For full information regarding our Nursery admissions procedure, please refer to our Nursery Admissions Policy.

Applying for September 2027 

Applications for September 2027 will open in October. 

The deadline for applications will be 15 March 2027. Applications received after this date will be considered as late applications and will be subject to places remaining available.

Please check this page again from October, when the 2027/2028 Nursery Application Form will be available.

Please read the information below before completing the application form.

 We offer 3 attendance patterns:

• 30 hour places (funded or part-funded), Monday to Friday, 8.50am to 2.50pm
• 15 hour places, Monday and Tuesday, 8.50am to 2.50pm and Wednesday 8.50am-11.50am
• 15 hour places, Wednesday 11.50am-2.50pm, Thursday and Friday 8.50am -2.50pm   

Nursery Top-Up Fees: 
All 3 and 4 year olds are eligible for 15 hours of funded early education at a Nursery setting.

If you are not entitled to 30 hours Free Childcare for Working Parents, but would like your child to attend Nursery full-time, you will be required to pay a top-up fee for the additional 15 hours.

As an example, the weekly fee for 2026-2027 for the additional 15hrs is £96.30 (this is subject to change for each academic year). This amount will be invoiced termly in advance but can either be paid in full or in instalments. If Nursery top-up fees are not paid promptly, your child’s Nursery place may be reduced to 15 hours per week.

Looking for a Nursery place during the current 2026/27 academic year?

If you would like your child to join our Nursery during the current academic year, you can still submit an application to join our waiting list. Places will be offered if and when spaces become available.
