Lemington Riverside Primary School

Apply for a Nursery place

Until July 2025 you could apply for a Nursery place at our school at any point from your child's birth -  due to the huge number of applications we now receive, our policy has now changed as described below. If you have already submitted an application before July 2025, don't worry, we have it on file and will add your child to the list for the relevant cohort by their date of birth. There's no need to apply again.

Our Nursery is an amazing place that offers children a brilliant grounding in early education before they formally start school in our Reception class.

Finding the right Nursery for your child is one of the most important decisions you will make for your child - we are always happy to arrange for tours of our Nursery so you can see what we are about and meet our team. We are proud to offer all children who attend our Nursery 30 hours of education (sometimes we need to build this up in a staggered approach dependent on your child's readiness to attend).

From July 2025 we have a new Nursery admissions policy and nursery applications can be made in an application window (this year that will be from Friday 8 January 2026 until Friday 13 March 2026).  

Please read our Nursery admissions policy below carefully before making your application. If you have any questions about our Nursery or the admissions process, please contact us directly. 

A LINK WILL APPEAR HERE ON FRIDAY 8 JANUARY 2026 WHICH WILL TAKE YOU TO OUR ONLINE APPLICATION FORM FOR NURSERY PLACES FOR SEPTEMBER 2026. ON THIS DATE, PAPER APPLICATION FORMS WILL ALSO BE AVAILABLE FROM THE SCHOOL OFFICE.
