Pre-school is available for children in their year before school and earlier. The government offers free pre-school places for children in their year before Primary 1 and you apply for these via a government gateway that’s available each January. We sometimes have space available if all of our allocated spaces haven’t been filled or perhaps a family has moved to a different area so if you are seeking a place it’s worth getting in touch. If you’ve missed the January gateway you can sign up for a paid place with us and remember you can get help with costs via Government tax breaks, and Universal Credit if you qualify which can pay up to 85% of your childcare costs. For younger children from 2 years 10 months and up we offer paid places and the details are below. This can be a cost effective way of providing a family with childcare support as well as a stimulating educational experience they may not get in regular daycare even if you are mixing and mathcing a few mornings with us and a days or afternoons with a daycare facility.
