Nursery Admissions

Visit the Durham County Council website for information regarding the school admission process and nursery school admissions. To appeal against an admission decision visit: School admissions-appeals.

Up to date information on eligibility for 30 hour nursery places for 3-4 year old children is available on the Government website.

Admissions Criteria

Further information from Durham County Council about the admission criteria to Community and Voluntary Controlled Nursery Schools and Units is available to view or download in the School Policies section.

Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

The majority of Children with Special Educational Needs can be supported at any nursery school, nursery unit or Early Years setting.

Nursery provision is also available in certain Special Schools. Support for individual pupils is determined by Durham Local Authority through Education, Health and Care Assessment.

The Durham Local Authority Admissions criteria stipulate that children are offered a Nursery place according to their age. However, children identified with Special Educational Needs are given priority irrespective of when they have their third birthday.

If you feel that your child has additional needs that we need to consider and that may entitle them to be given priority during the admission process, please let us know when you submit their application form.

Further information can be found in our School Policies section. Please view or download the School Admission Policy, SEN Policy and Equal Opportunities Policy.

If you would like to discuss your SEND requirements in detail please contact the school to arrange an appointment.
