Nursery Admissions
Nursery admissions are dealt with by Hook Norton School and we follow Oxfordshire County Council’s guidelines.
Working parents may be entitled to 30 hours free childcare per week. You can find further information about this entitlement here
You can choose mornings – 9:00am - 11:30am, afternoons 12:40pm-3:10pm or whole days. These are subject to availability and although we always aim to offer you your first choice, this is not always possible.
We will offer those parents who are not eligible for the 30 hours funding 15 hours which can be made up of either mornings, afternoons or two whole days with either an afternoon or morning. Children become eligible for a place in the Nursery class at the beginning of the long term after their third birthday. Please note, we do not admit funded 2 year olds.
Nursery places are allocated in June for September starters. If there are places available further allocations will take place in October for January starters and February for April starters. Parents can add their child’s name to our Nursery waiting list at any time from birth. Application forms are available here or from the school office.
