What happens next

  1. We will send you an admissions form to fill in so that your child can be considered for a place.
  2. All admissions forms will join an application list and you will be allocated a space as our Islington Early Years Admissions Policy explains. Places are allocated throughout the year.
  3. The nursery will contact you when a place becomes available. You are welcome to book a nursery tour to visit any of the nursery sites.
