We offer 15 hours of funded nursery education to children the term after their third birthday.  Your child may be entitled to 30 hours funded nursery education and you can find out more at: https://www.childcarechoices.gov.uk/

We deliver the Early Years Curriculum to the children through interactive play-based activities indoors and outdoors. More information about the Early Years Curriculum can be found on the following website: http://www.foundationyears.org.uk/

During your child’s time at Winsford High Street Primary School Nursery we will keep a learning journey of your child. This is comprised of photographs of the children, observations of learning and pieces of work completed by the child, and can be access via the tapestry app. Parents are encouraged to sign up to the electronic learning journey which allows you to see observations made of your child and also enables you to contribute ‘Wow’ moments that you see at home. More information will be provided as your child enters the nursery.

We are a fully inclusive primary school and nursery. If your child has special educational needs or you have any concerns over your child please speak to a member of staff so we can support you in your child’s transition into Nursery. Our school Special Educational Needs policy can be found on the school website.

If you would like to put in an application for a place at our nursery the forms can be collected from the school office or downloaded from the Nursery Admissions section. We will contact you about your child’s place the term prior to them starting. We currently have September, January and Easter intakes.

Please note that due to the demand for places we cannot guarantee that having your child on our waiting list will guarantee you a place or your requested sessions. If you have any further questions about the nursery please contact the school on 01606 668066. We look forward to having the opportunity to work with you and your child.
