Thank you for your interest in our school.

Information about sending your child to our school is below. We'd love you to visit us and see our school in session - we're very proud of our children and the education we provide for them. If you haven't done so already, please see our Welcome page for information about our vision and values, and you can view information about our curriculum on the Curriculum page.

Nursery admission

Parents who would like to send their child to our school nursery should contact us directly on 01773 742537 for full details of nursery admissions. For admission to nursery there are currently three intakes - September, January and Easter (Easter intake has a cut-off date of birth of the 31st March). Nursery children start with us in the intake after their third birthday (January and Easter intakes are subject to places being available). Our school offers five sessions, Monday to Friday, and these are morning and afternoon sessions. The morning times are 8:30 to 11:30 and the afternoon times are 12:30 to 15:30.

We also offer eligible parents an additional 15 extended hours free. To take advantage of the full additional 15 hours, our nursery is extended until 15:30 for those parents who are eligible.

You can register your child with us at any time and we will add them to our waiting list. Children are admitted to nursery in date of birth order. We have a meeting with parents in the term before their child is due to start nursery. This covers all the starting arrangements and gives parents an insight into the curriculum and an opportunity to meet the Early Years Foundation Stage staff.

 
Reception admission

Parents of children who are due to enter Reception in September have to apply to Derbyshire County Council for a school place. Please click here for more information regarding school admission arrangements.

Your current childcare provider should give you relevant information on the application process and when it opens. We have a meeting for parents in the term before their child is due to start Reception. The meeting covers all the starting arrangements and gives parents an insight into the curriculum. It also provides an opportunity to meet the Early Years Foundation Stage staff, and other parents and children.
