Applying for a Nursery place
Children can start in our Nursery from the term after their third birthday. Nursery admissions are managed by the school, not the Local Authority.
We have three intakes - the main intake is in September and the other two are January and March/April (places subject to availability).
If you would like to apply for a place in our Nursery for your child, please complete an application form, which you can download at the bottom of this page. Please send your completed form to enquiries@mountstreet.anthemtrust.uk.
You can fill in this Nursery application form at any time. We keep this on file until your child is old enough to join us, and then we process your application.
All places are subject to availability. We try our best to offer the sessions you have asked for, but please note that for the January and March/April intakes, this may not always be possible.
Mid-term applications
If you are new to the area or looking to move your three-year-old to our Nursery mid-term (outside our three intakes), please enquire about a place by calling the school directly on 01522 527339, or emailing enquiries@mountstreet.anthemtrust.uk.
