Places

Valley Park Academy is a publicly funded Nursery. The admission number is 60 full time equivalent places for children aged between two and four years old. We will open with a smaller number of places and offer them in groups of 5 (for 2 year old) and groups of 8 (for 3 & 4 year old).

Start dates

Our main intake is the start of the academic year (September), from which point we aim to reach capacity as quickly as possible for economic reasons. Once full for the academic year, space will only be available should there be a change to an existing place, e.g., a child leaves or once children reach the age that the ratios mean places arise.

We will admit 2, 3 and 4-year-olds in the Autumn term in the first instance. Offers of places for the Spring and Summer terms will only be made if places are available throughout the year.
