*funded hours can be accessed Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 4:00pm.
Bodhi Tree Nursery is registered with the Tax Free Childcare scheme.
Admissions Procedure
Your children are as unique to us as they are to you! We therefore need to know some more information before we get to meet you in person. To book a visit at the Bodhi Tree Nursery, parents must first complete and return the Enrolment Questionnaire. It is important to us to make a non-IT communication as we would like to hear your voice and have a short phone conversation first, before we arrange an appointment.
Registration Procedure
To apply for a place at the nursery, parents are required to complete a Registration Form and pay a non-refundable registration fee of £120. Payment of the registration fee does not guarantee a place at the nursery but ensures that your child’s name will be added to the waiting list. Once your registration form has been processed you will be sent a registration letter by email.
Allocation Of Places
A child is offered placement at the nursery based on the following order of priority:
Availability
Sibling
No. of sessions
Request date
Placement
When we are able to offer a place at the nursery, we will contact parents by email to specify the available schedule (which days and number of sessions) and the anticipated start date. Parents will be requested to respond, by email, within a specified time if they wish to accept the offer made otherwise the offer will lapse.
Deposit
The deposit is paid on acceptance of an offer and is held by the nursery until such time as your child leaves the nursery, subject to, written notice of 1 term in advance. Should parents withdraw their application to join the nursery, the deposit is non-refundable and a written notice, 1 term in advance, must still be given. The deposit will cover the last calendar month that your child will be spending at the nursery.
