It is our intention to make our preschool accessible to children and families from all sections of the local community. We are committed to being as inclusive as possible regarding our admissions for our preschool. We also strive to be a provider of funded childcare without it impacting the quality of our provisions. This policy outlines our approach to preschool admissions, our admissions criteria, and our plans for offering funded childcare in a sustainable and inclusive manner.

How will I know what kind of day my child had?Information is given to parents and carers in our home communication books. These notes tell you about your child's time with us and any key information that we want you to know. We are active on social media and pictures and videos are sent to parents. Our friendly staff are always on hand to answer any questions that you may have.

What do I do if my child is ill?If your child is unwell please do not bring them to Preschool. Not only are certain illnesses contagious, but when a child is unwell the main carer is the best person to care for the child. If your child has a cold, cough or virus and is showing no other symptoms of being unwell they can continue attending. If your child has sickness and/or diarrhoea they must be kept away from the setting for a minimum of 48 hours after the last episode of sickness and/ or diarrhoea. However, if your child has a raised temperature, continued cough, or is unable to eat, then this indicates that they are not well enough to attend Preschool.
