Admission arrangements for nursery aged children

We are able to take children in the term after their 3rd birthday, for example if your child turns 3 in July they would start F1 (nursery) in September.

The most suitable age to register your child for a nursery place is 2.5 years old and you can do this by requesting an application pack from the school office. We encourage you to book a visit to have a look around the school before you fill in your application.
