Little Nursery Provision

We admit children to 2+ Little Nursery the term after they turn two. Each term we will work
on the cohort of children that are turning 2 years old, to enrol children to join the school at
the beginning of the term after they turn two.

We will have a specific number of spaces to fill in each termly cohort, as our numbers are
capped due to Ofsted requirements for available floor space per pupil and staffing numbers.
We will contact families to offer spaces in the order that they appear on our contact list.
Those parents who have been on our contact list longest are asked first. We then work
down our contact list, offering spaces until we are full.

We will aim to offer families a choice of 15 hour or 30 hour attendance patterns as follows:
Parents may choose a 30 hour option:
Children attend Monday to Friday from 8:45am to 2:45pm.
Parents may choose a 15 hour option:
Children attend: Beginning of the week ,
Monday 8:45am to 2:45pm,
Tuesday 8:45am to 2:45pm,
Wednesday 8:45am to 11:45am. OR
End of the week,
Wednesday 11:45am to 2:45pm,
Thursday 8:45am to 2:45pm,
Friday 8:45am to 2:45pm.
As spaces begin to fill, we may not be able to offer all the options above.

So to costs:
From September 2024 we are bringing our fees in line with what the government pays to
our setting for funded spaces.
The cost of 15 hours attendance pattern will be £111.60 per week.
The cost of 30 hours attendance pattern will be £223.20 per week.
Once booked, the particular sessions are allocated to that child every week. These
sessions must be paid for in advance.

Parents entitled to ‘15 hours funding for working families for Two Year olds’ or ‘15 hours
funding for underprivileged Two year olds’ can use their funding here, choosing between
the beginning of the week or end of the week attendance pattern, subject to availability.
These parents may choose to pay for an additional 15 hours should they want a 30 hour
space.
