Northbrook Nursery Consultation Letter
As you may be aware, over Summer 2024 we made a significant investment into the development of our Early Years area in school which means that children joining our school in reception have access to exceptional facilities. I am delighted to be writing to you now to set out Northbrook Primary Academy’s proposal to open a Nursery provision within our school, which represents our next significant investment to ensure that children within our community have access to the highest quality early years provision.
Please read through the letter above for full details including FAQ about the consultation.
Register Your Interest
At Northbrook, our children’s happiness, well-being and achievements are at the HEART of everything we do. We provide a safe and supportive learning environment and pride ourselves on our warm, nurturing and family-orientated atmosphere.
We recognise that every child is unique and all our staff strive to ensure that every child is given the opportunity to work to the best of their ability. We endeavour to develop the whole child and prepare each one academically, emotionally and socially to live and succeed in an ever-changing world. We provide our children with a wide range of experiences to ensure every child can develop a love of learning, enjoy being in school and have a chance to shine. We aspire to ensure that our children leave us with the best possible foundations upon which they can build throughout their lives. We are incredibly proud of our children and want our children to feel proud of themselves.
This is an exciting time for Northbrook Primary Academy, and we are determined to ensure that our provision is designed to meet the needs of our local community. With that in mind, we would like to invite anybody who may be interested in their children attending nursery provision from September 2025 to complete the following form:

Consultation
Northbrook Primary Academy will making an application to the Department for Education to open a nursery provision, expanding the age range of the school to enable us to offer places in the nursery to children from either age 3, or age 2, depending on the levels of demand which we will assess through the registration of interest form. This proposal is subject to formal consultation with all stakeholders, and the outcomes of the consultation will be considered by Endeavour Learning Trust and the Department for Education before any final decisions are made.
As set out, the key elements of our proposal are to:
• Open a new nursery provision from September 2025
• Extend the age range of the school (which is currently from ages 4 to 11) to be either ages 3 to 11 or 2 to 11, depending on the levels of demand reflected in our registration of interest, from September 2025.
Stakeholders who do not wish to register their interest in attending the nursery, but would otherwise like to respond to the consultation are invited to submit their response to enquiries@endeavourlearning.org by 5.00pm on Friday 29th November 2024.
