Applications to our Nursery
Schools will manage their own Nursery admissions.
· We will admit children into our Nursery in the term after they turn 3 in September, January and April.
· Our Admissions criteria will be:
- Children Looked After.
- Evidenced medical or social need (from a doctor, psychologist or social worker – saying why closer schools to their home address will not meet the child’s needs. Why our school fits their specific needs?)
- Siblings of a child here (in the current Reception – Year 5).
- Son/daughter of a member of our school staff.
- Closest distance, as the crow flies from your front door to our school gates (as measured by Googlemaps).
