About this day nursery

Killisick Pre-School operates within Coppice Farm Primary School, offering early years education as an integral part of the school community. While specific details about the pre-school's philosophy or daily activities are not extensively outlined on the provided pages, the school overall emphasizes a nurturing environment, aiming to provide a 'HUGE heart' to its students.

The school encourages prospective pre-school parents to contact them for tours to experience the setting firsthand and to meet the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) team, known as the Enchanted Elm team. Admissions for the pre-school, much like the primary school's Reception class, are managed through an online application process via the Nottinghamshire County Council's admissions website.

The school maintains a clear admissions process, including a published admission number (PAN) of 30 for each year group, ensuring a structured approach to student intake. Parents are advised to contact the school office for current information on available places and to arrange visits.
