Nursery class
All Solihull infant and primary schools are now responsible for their own nursery admissions policy. In order to provide as much information as possible for parents, please see below for our Nursery Admissions policy, along with information leaflets about the government 30 hour free childcare.
Our Nursery Admissions Policy can be found on our Policies page.
Information about 30 hours free childcare funding can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/30-hours-free-childcare
Information about childcare choices for parents/ carers can also be found here: www.childcarechoices.gov.uk
Our nursery admissions follow the same arrangements set by the Local Authority for children starting in Reception and above.
Details of our breakfast, teatime and holiday childcare provision, can be found on our childcare page.
Please contact the School Office to enquire about places for Nursery in the current academic year.
Reception class
Monkspath School follows Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council’s admission arrangements for Reception aged children.
Each year, the council publishes information detailing of the admission arrangements for Solihull schools. The information is available from the Solihull Council school admissions team on 0121 704 6693 or from their website at www.solihull.gov.uk/admissions
You can apply for a place online at http://www.solihull.gov.uk/enrol
Reception application forms are available from the Solihull Council School Admissions Team 12 months before the child is due to start in Reception.
Attendance in a school nursery will not give any priority for a place in the Reception class at the same school. A Reception application form must be completed.
In-year admissions
Monkspath School follows Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council’s admission arrangements for in-year admissions.
Each year, the council publishes information detailing of the admission arrangements during the school year for Solihull schools. The information is available from the Solihull Council school admissions team on 0121 704 6693 or from the SMBC website at www.solihull.gov.uk/Schools-and-learning/moving-schools-during-school-year
Tours for prospective families
Small group tours led by one of our Senior Leaders take place at various times throughout each Autumn Term for the following September admission. If you are thinking of applying for a place for your child please call the school office for details of our available dates and to book a place to see our school.
