If you are interested in your child starting school with us, we would love to show you around so you may understand and experience our school vision and ethos.

Please contact the school office on 01427 890355 or email us at office@walkeringham.notts.sch.uk to arrange a visit at a time which is convenient for you. 

We have a range of facilities to support families including breakfast club which starts at 7:50 am and after school club which runs until 5:30 pm.

Nursery Admissions

We offer a Nursery facility and children are able to start with us the term after they are 3 years old.  Nursery admissions take place directly through the school, so please contact us for any information.  

As you are probably aware, all 3 to 4-year-olds in England can receive 570 free hours per year.  This is usually taken as 15 hours a week during term time.

Some 3 to 4-year-olds are eligible for 30 hours of free childcare a week. Check if you’re eligible and find out how to apply.

The free early education and childcare:

• must be with an approved childcare provider
• stops when your child starts in reception class (or reaches compulsory school age, if later)

You can get it from the term after your child’s 3rd birthday, starting on 1 January, 1 April or 1 September.

If it is 30 hours per week you require and your child is not eligible for the 30 hours of free childcare a week, please contact the school office who will advise you of the charges we make for these extra Nursery hours.

In-Year Admissions and Reception Admissions

 In-Year and Reception Class Admissions take place through the local admissions authority, Nottinghamshire County Council on 0300 500 80 80.  You will need to make contact with them either on the phone or online.  Applications are made online.
