Early Education

Give your child the best start
Why choose us?

Children accessing Funded Early Education will learn through play, in line with the Curriculum for Funded Non-maintained nursery settings in Wales.
Research in Wrexham has proved that children who access Funded Early Education at three years generally go on to achieve higher outcomes at the end of year 6 than those who don’t take up the offer.

Benefits of Funded Early Education include:
• learning new skills
• growing in confidence
• finding out and problem solving
• exploring and using technology
• developing independence
• developing creativity and imagination
• learning to speak Welsh
• making friends
• having lots of fun indoors and outdoors.

When and How can I apply for Early Education?

For children who have reached the age of three a funded place will be available the term after their third birthday. This may be for one term or two terms depending on their birth date.

At Borras Park Community Primary School we run our Early Education sessions two hours every day.

Admission forms are available online from September. You can apply now for Funded Early Education.

Dates and eligibility for applications are available on the Wrexham Council website.

Late applications will be processed after those that have been received on time.

In addition to funded Early Education, you may also be eligible for the free childcare offer for 3 -4 year olds so your child may stay in the setting all day. Our aim is to ensure that the children have continuity of care, which is responsive to individual family needs, so that you have peace of mind while you are working.

You may be eligible for:

• up to 30 hours per week of combined Childcare and Early Years Foundation Phase Education during the term time and
• up to 9 weeks of childcare (30 hours) in the school holidays through the Childcare Offer:
