Nursery Admissions

Children who are 3 years old are able to make an application to the Nursery in our school. A place in the Nursery does not guarantee a place in the main school but children meeting the Local Authority’s entry requirements will move on to the reception class. Visit the Hackney Education website to check your eligibility for free childcare
