NURSERY ADMISSIONS FOR SEPTEMBER 2020

Please contact the School directly regarding Nursery In Year Admissions. 

Parents of children born between 1st September 2016 and 31st August 2017 can apply for their nursery place start in September 2020 from 4th November 2019.  The application process has changed from previous years and an application must now be made direct to the School.

Application Process

Timeline

Provision Available

From September 2018 our Nursery cohort increased to 52 spaces.

We have one intake for Nursery in September and your child will attend either a morning or afternoon session.  A preference may be expressed on the application form but this is not guaranteed.

Nursery session times are term time Monday to Friday 8:50am to 11:50am and Monday to Friday 12:10pm to 3:10pm, totalling 15 hours of free early education.  We recommend attending five sessions per week.

There are a limited number of wraparound care places available and this provision can be either funded by 30 hour funded provision and/or fee paying.  The times of the two sessions available for this provision are: Monday to Friday 11:50am to 1:20pm or 11:50am to 3:05pm.  Requests for this provision should be indicated on the Nursery application form.  Wraparound care provision is not guaranteed. You will be contacted as soon as possible by Little Stars to confirm arrangements.  Should you have any questions regarding the provision (not to request a place) please contact  Millfield Little Stars direct in the first instance.  They can be contacted via the School Office.

Flexible wrap around care provision is also available as follows and enquiries for these places should be made direct to Millfield Little Stars.  They can be contacted via the School Office:

• Breakfast Club (from 8:00am Monday to Friday)
• Fun Club (3:15pm to 5:15pm Monday to Thursday and 3:15pm to 4:15pm on a Friday)
• Holiday Club (during school holidays)

A paper copy of the application form may also be obtained from the School Office.  Completed forms must be returned to Millfield First & Nursery School and an acknowledgement of receipt obtained.  Being offered a Nursery place is not a guarantee for obtaining a Reception place.  A separate application must be made at the appropriate time for a Reception place.

Oversubscription Criteria

Additional Information

Any application received after the 15.01.20 at 3:00pm will be treated as a late application and processed on 28.02.20.

We will hold a waiting list and places will be allocated, if and when available, according to the oversubscription criteria against the waiting list at the time a place becomes available.

We will use Google maps as a measuring tool to measure home-school distance measurements as measured in a straight line.

There is no appeal procedure for Nursery admissions and, therefore, any complaints would be managed using the complaints procedure.
