Whitings Hill Primary School

Admissions

Nursery

Children can start in our Nursery in the term after their third birthday.

Where possible, we take children each term. However, there are times when we are full and are unable to admit children in the Spring or Summer terms. If this applies to your child, they would be able to start the following September.

We offer a 15 hour morning session (8.30-11.30) or afternoon session (12.30-15.30) plus a limited number of 30 hour places Monday to Friday. A valid code must be provided before starting. The 30 hour session runs from 8.30 to 14.30, however the nursery day ends at 15.30 so there is an additional fee for a 15.30 finish.

Please note that the morning sessions are the most popular and get full quickly.

Applications for the next intake are available online: Online_Admission_Form or by completing the PDF form: Admission_Form. Please email the form to admissions.
