Waiting list

Nursery Grant

The nursery is registered with Ofsted. If you are entitled to the nursery grant, a credit will be applied to your account monthly, over the period of the term of entitlement.
The present criteria set out by the Government for funded nursery grants, is for the term preceding your child's 4th birthday through to the term before he/she starts school (usually the September after his/her fourth birthday).

Fully funded grant sessions.

We do offer, subject to availability, sessions fully funded by the nursery grant for children entitled to the grant. The sessions are 5 x 2.5 hours per week for eleven weeks for the eligible term.

Priority for nursery places will be given to families already on our register.

There is a strict registration date for the grant sessions. If you require a fully funded place it is advisable to place your name on the waiting list at the earliest opportunity.
