Admissions

We have a few spaces available at our Outstanding nursery to start in September 2025. We are also taking applications for future nursery places the term after your child turns 3.

We would like to welcome you to join us and see our natural environment, meet staff and ask any questions you may have.

Please take the opportunity to come along as a family to see our inspiring natural learning environment for yourselves and see the wealth of opportunities on offer for your child which they will be able to treasure for many years as they create their magical moments.

Please contact us by phone or email if you would like a tour.

We value feedback and feel that this too will help to give you a feel for what we have on offer at Weston Way Nursery:

Weston Way has been invaluable to my child’s progression. They have wholeheartedly supported him through everything and not given up at any hurdle. If it wasn’t for the nursery, he would not be where he is today and progressed so well from September. The staff have a fantastic bond with the children and it really is a home from home.” (Parent Survey 2023)

“Lovely to meet you and visit your lovely nursery today. Made me realise how much I miss the classroom.” (Early Years SEND Team, December 2021)

Application Process

The nursery offer a first-come, first-served admissions policy. Nursery places are offered are based on the same considerations as above:

- space at the nursery

- staffing provision

- appropriate for the child’s transition (E.g. SEND, mobility)

We hold an applications list that shows processed applications so that admissions are fair and transparent.

Any places not accepted or declined by the deadline will be followed up but if after a week of no correspondence then the offer is 'declined' .

Please email or telephone the nursery for any further information or details.
