Places in Little School Nursery fill up fast, and so we encourage parents to apply early to avoid disappointment. Contact Head of Admissions, Mrs Rust, to discuss availability or arrange a tour with our Nursery Manager, Mrs Swords.
The Admission Process
Registration costs £100 and will place your child’s name on our entry list or waiting list, depending on availability. This is followed by taster visit(s) and then a firm offer. Places are secured upon payment of the entry fee deposit and signing of contracts.
Due to the often limited availability in Little School, families are advised that the process moves swiftly when places become available.
Sessions
Parents must commit to a weekly session schedule for their child. A session is either am (07:30-13:00) or pm (13:00-18:00). A full day counts as two sessions. Ad-hoc additional sessions can be requested but are subject to availability and staffing.
Children in Fledglings (0-2 years) must attend a minimum of 6 sessions per week and at least one of these sessions must be on either a Monday or a Friday.
Children Owls (2-3 years) must attend a minimum of 8 sessions per week.
Children in Robins (3-4+ years) must attend a minimum of 8 session per week, and this must include every morning session (i.e. a minimum of 2 mornings and 3 full days). This ensures that every child receives the same educational input during their pre-Reception year.
Nursery Fees
Little School fees are charged monthly and payment is due in full on or before the first day of the month. The cost of all meals and snacks is included, but nappies and formula must be provided.
