This form is for completion by the Parent/Guardian of every child before they have
been allocated a place at Cranbrook Education
Campus Early Years Unit. Once you have
been allocated a space we will ask you to fill in an information form before
your child starts. We have three classrooms allocated for our Early Years children. We have a classroom for the 2/3 year old's and then two classrooms for
the 3/4 year old's. We are open term time only and have an intake of new
children in September, January and April, if spaces are available. We allocate
sessions to children who have been on our waiting list the longest. We cannot
guarantee that we will be able to allocate all the sessions you require due to
current numbers. We will do our best to offer you some of the sessions you need
or you may have to wait until the next intake. Please complete the application from below. You will be contacted once we have received the
completed form and we will let you know when your child is able to start in the
Nursery or Pre-school.
Please contact us via the nursery email: nursery@cranbrook.education to ask any questions you may
have.
