preschool.org.uk Noah’s Ark Pre-school Admissions Policy As a pre-school, we follow the normal school academic year with a September intake. Places are also offered at other times, if they become available. Applications for entry in September in any given year will be accepted until the last day of the spring term. Applications received after this date will be considered if spaces are available. If your child is under 3 at the point of entry and does not receive Government funding a non-refundable deposit of £20 is required.

Priority will be given in the following order:
1. Baptised Roman Catholic children requiring a full time place (5×3 hrs am or pm or full time) at the pre-school.

2. Non-Catholic children requiring a full time place (5×3 hrs am or pm or full time) at the pre-school.

3. Baptised Catholic children requiring a part time place at the pre-school.

4. Non-Catholic children requiring a part-time place at the pre-school.

Parents wishing to apply for a place for their child should complete the attached application form to register on the waiting list. Application forms should be sent by post or email to the address above. Successful applications will be advised in April.
Our fees are explained on our separate fees page.
In the event of a child being refused a place you will have the right to appeal against the decision to the Chair of the Noah’s Ark Pre-school Committee.
