2026/2027 update

Temporary Suspension of New 2-Year-Old Nursery Places

Whilst we would usually welcome and accept 2-year-old children into our nursery provision, we are temporarily unable to offer any new 2-year-old places.

This decision has been made following careful consideration of staffing capacity, school organisation, statutory adult-to-child ratios, and the needs of the children currently attending our setting. Our priority is to ensure that all children receive the highest quality of care, support and learning opportunities in a safe and nurturing environment.

We will continue to review this position regularly and will provide updates when we are able to reopen places for 2-year-old admissions. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank families for their understanding.

As one of SHINE's academies we work in partnership with Nottinghamshire County Council to ensure the admissions process complies with the Department for Education's code for admissions: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2014/3321/made and you can access further information with regard to admissions via https://www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/education/school-admissions

Please be aware that if your child attends our nursery, it does not give priority to a place in our school.
