Consultation: Proposed Extension of Age Range to Include Two-Year-Olds

We are currently holding a consultation on a proposed change to our school’s age range. From Monday 27th October until 5pm on Monday 11th November, we are inviting feedback on lowering our age range to include two-year-olds, alongside our existing provision for children aged three and above.

 

This proposal follows a positive response to our Expression of Interest survey last year, where many families indicated a need for high-quality early years places for two-year-olds. We believe this change would allow us to extend our inclusive, nurturing provision to even more children at the very start of their learning journey.

 

As part of a national initiative, the government is expanding the number of two-year-olds eligible for funded childcare hours. To meet this growing demand, it is essential that additional places are made available—particularly to ensure that disadvantaged children can access the support they are entitled to.

 

We welcome your views and encourage all parents, carers, and members of our community to take part in the consultation. Please share your feedback using the link below: 👉

Thank you for your continued support.
