Our school has a nursery class for 3-4 year olds. We provide both full- time and part-time provision with wrap-around care which can be accessed from 7.30am to 5:30pm. If you would like to apply for a place for your children in our nursery class please contact the school for further information.

Parents should be aware that attending the nursery class does not mean your child will automatically transfer to the reception class at this school. You will still need to apply at the appropriate time for a place for your child in a reception class, using the council's common application form, as described in this prospectus.
