If we are unable to find you a place then we will refund your Registration Fee or Deposit.
However, if you do not take up a place that is offered then you will forfeit this payment.
The Weavers Journey Starts In Your home...
Before your child starts, we’ll learn more about their routines, interests, personality and individual needs.
Their settling journey begins with a home visit from their key person, allowing that first relationship to develop somewhere your child already feels safe and comfortable.
The Home Visit
Settling is gradually built around your child. Sessions are extended as their confidence and relationships develop, with regular communication between your family and their key person.
How We Prioritise Nursery Places
We always do our best to accommodate families wherever possible. Where demand is greater than the places available, we offer places in the following order of priority:
- Children already attending Weavers who wish to increase their sessions
- Siblings of children currently attending Weavers
- Families already part of the Weavers community who require a change to their existing arrangements
- New families, considered according to the date they joined our waiting list, preferred start date and availability of their required sessions
For full details on admissions, waiting lists and the allocation of places, please refer to our Admissions Policy.
