Starting Pre-School

Welcome to Woodford Pre-School

We understand that starting Pre-School or moving setting is a significant moment for any child. We will do everything we can to ensure your child settles in smoothly to Woodford Pre-School.

We take our responsibility for your child’s personal and academic development seriously. We value strong home-school links and the positive difference they can make to a child’s happiness and success.

We hope you find the information provided on our website useful and encourage you to look at our school Instagram to get a flavour of life at Woodford Primary School. If you have any questions or queries, please do not hesitate to contact us on [email protected].

Admissions for September 2025 entry into Pre-School

The Laurus Trust is the Admissions Authority for Woodford Pre-School. The co-ordination and administration of admissions for entry is undertaken directly by Woodford Primary School.

If your child was born between 1st September 2021 and 31st August 2022, they are eligible for a place in our Pre-School starting in September 2025. The Admissions Form will be available from 22nd July 2024 to 1st March 2025 and offers will be made by the end of April 2025.

Our Pre-School does not have a catchment area. If a tie-break is required to determine which child gets a place, we will refer to the criteria in our Pre-School Admissions Policy – see below in the Useful Information section. For any other policies, please visit our Policy Page.
