Please see our Admissions Policies Hurst Park Primary Academy Address and Directions

Starting Nursery

The earliest that a child can be considered to start at Hurst Park Primary Academy is at the beginning of the term after their third birthday. Your child’s date of birth will determine the maximum amount of time that they can spend in nursery before starting primary school. Children are eligible to start primary school in the academic year after they turn four years of age. Many nurseries will fill up in the Autumn term. Therefore, if your child is eligible to start nursery in the Spring term, there will be no guarantee that places will be available. Your child may have to wait until the Autumn term to be considered for a vacancy.

Nursery 2025/2026

Nursery parents and carers should apply directly to the school for places in our Nursery for September 2025. The deadline for receipt of applications is 15th January 2025 at 3.00pm. Applications received after this time will be deemed late and considered after all on time applications.

After 15th January 2025, if you wish to submit a late application as outlined above, please email hpoffice@leoacademytrust.co.uk to request the link to a late nursery application form for the academic year 2025/2026.

Reception 2025/2026

We have 60 places in our Reception shared between two classes. All children need to apply for a Reception place regardless of previous pre-school education. Offers of Reception places are sent directly by Surrey County Council in the term before your child is due to start. Once you have confirmed your acceptance of the offer to the Local Authority, your details will be forwarded to the school. You will then be informed by the school as to your child’s starting date. Your child will have the opportunity to visit the school prior to starting.
