New Era Primary School

As a school we hold our own records for admission to the nursery.  We will accept children’s names on a completed application form for the nursery waiting list, from their second birthday. Once your child is on our waiting list, we cannot guarantee you a place but we do try to offer all children at least three terms in the nursery before entry into school.  

In the summer term before the children’s planned start in September, the school will offer places according to the local authority’s admission procedures and will contact parents/carers accordingly.  The offer for your child will be a half day session, either morning or afternoon.

Please contact the school office for an application form.

Any child whose 4th birthday falls between 1st September and 31st August will be entitled to start school full time in reception at the beginning of the academic year. To register your child at our school, please contact the Local Authority or your nursery school in the September before your child’s fourth birthday for an information booklet and application form. Alternatively, to make sure you apply on time, apply online at www.eadmissions.org.uk from September before the closing date usually in the middle of January.

In the term before your child’s admission is due, you will receive a letter from the Local Authority whether a place is offered and if not, you will be given your statutory right to appeal. If you are offered a place, write, or complete the acceptance/refusal letter provided by the Local Authority within two weeks from the offer date, otherwise you might lose it.

Please note that if your child has a place at Queens Road Nursery, you are not automatically guaranteed a place in reception at Queens Road Primary School.
