Admissions
If you would like to apply for a place at Woodcroft, please fill in the Expression of Interest form on the link below or ring the office on 01245 473222 to book in for a New Families visit, we will then arrange for you to have a tour of the Nursery and be given a prospectus and the relevant paperwork to fill out in order to be placed on our waiting list.
Places in Big Woodcroft, start the term after your child turns three. Places in Little Woodcroft are normally from the beginning of the term after your child is two, but in exceptional circumstances and subject to availability this can be from their second birthday.
Once you are on our waiting list there is no need to do anything. We will contact you ½ a term before your child is due to start to arrange visits. Do phone us if you have any queries or questions, we are always happy to help.
