Nursery Admissions

In the term after a child’s third birthday, children are entitled to 15 hours a week free care and education during school term time.

Wyndham Spencer Academy offers a range of session times, enabling you to pick those that are best for you. We can offer your child one of the following slots:

  • Monday – Friday A.M. only 8.50-11.50am
  • Monday to Friday P.M. only 12.15-3.15pm
  • Beginning of the week (Monday and Tuesday 8.50am-3.15pm, plus Wednesday 8.50-11.50am)
  • End of the week (Wednesday 12.15-3.15pm, plus Thursday and Friday 8.50am-3.15pm)

 

Please note that we are unable to ‘mix and match’ sessions due to the way this will impact other families and children.

We are also able to offer 30-hour places. To find out if you are entitled to this, please visit https://www.gov.uk/30-hours-free-childcare

Our Nursery intake times across the year are:

  • September (children born 1st April to 31st August)
  • January (children born 1st September to 31st December)
  • Easter (children born 1st January to 31st March)
