Admissions
Pre-School and the Early Years
Our Early Years unit is led by experienced teacher Mrs Anneka Hall, who is supported by a team of very experienced and highly skilled Early Years specialist teaching assistants. Our Pre-School is led by Mrs Elizabeth Warby, and supported by Mrs Moira Fudge, our Early Years administrator. We operate as a mixed-age Pre-School and Reception unit, with a fresh, exciting and well-resourced learning environment that operates from two distinct learning rooms and a large outdoor learning space with canopy and playground. Early Years children also make good use of our Forest School area during outdoor learning opportunities and play time.
For further information about our Pre-School and to apply for a place, please telephone the school office on 01299 250312 or email mjf58@hartlebury.worcs.sch.uk
Having a place in our Pre-School DOES NOT guarantee a place in our school. Admissions to our school are arranged by Worcestershire Local Authority Pupil Admissions. Children in our catchment area are given priority. All children will need to apply, by January of their intake year, for a place in the Reception Class via the Local Authority admissions department. Please apply via Worcestershire School Admissions www.worcestershire.gov.uk/schooladmissions

If you wish to apply for a place at any Worcestershire school, you must complete an application provided by your “home” LA. (The “home” LA is defined as the Local Authority relevant to the child’s home address). The “home” LA will ensure that the application details are passed on to Worcestershire LA for consideration in the allocation of school places.
If you are not resident in Worcestershire, then you should obtain admission details from your home LA, even if your preferences include schools within Worcestershire.
