Admissions Panel and Register of Applications

All nursery places are allocated in line with Glasgow City Council’s Admissions and charging policy for early years.  For more information please refer to the early learning and childcare information pages on the Glasgow City Council website regarding admissions.

Please note only one application form should be completed and handed into your first-choice nursery. If we are unable to allocate your first choice of place we will then try to place the application with another nursery present at the panel.

Enrolment procedures

Parents/Carers will be invited into the nursery to fill out the enrolment paperwork and will be given a date in which they will bring their child to start the settling process. At the enrolment you will be introduced to the leadership team and your child’s key person. For our children under three, the team will be piloting home visits this term, offering all new families an opportunity for key staff to home visit prior to starting nursery.  

Parents are asked to settle their child in the playroom until they have become familiar with their key person and other staff in the nursery environment. 

We cannot say how long settling will take as every child is an individual. Some children settle more quickly than others and every child will be well supported through this important transition. 

Parents will be key partners in this process with the child's key person ensuring information from home informs the child's care plan. This will ensure that key information about the child and family is shared with key adults and the child remains at the centre of the settling process. Children who require a transition object from home will be supported to do so.
