Trotts Hill Primary School and Nursery
If you would like your child to attend our school, please see full details of our admission arrangements below.
We are incredibly proud of our lovely Nursery setting, where we are confident your child will make a fantastic start to their educational journey.
We would be delighted to show you around so you can see our Nursery in action and get a feel for what daily life is like for a child joining us. Please contact the school office to arrange a visit.
We have one main intake each September. If spaces are available, we may also be able to offer places for a January or April start, for children who turn three during the previous term.
Please note that we run a 30-place morning nursery (15 hours of provision per week). We also offer 30 hours of provision for eligible families, with the option to pay for the afternoon session if you are not eligible.
Application forms can be found below, or alternatively, you can contact the school office on 01438 314189 to book a school tour and find out more information.

Places in our Nursery are in high demand and are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so early application is encouraged.
We are very proud of our school and we are sure your child will make a fantastic start to their education here!
All children start in Reception in September. We recognise that the first term in Reception is an important transition point and we make sure that the activities support all the children, including those who may be away from home for a full day for the first time.
All applications for Reception places are handled by the local authority – you can find more information on the Herts County Council website at www.hertsdirect.org/admission s. Telephone: 0300 123 4043. If you do not have easy access to a computer, or if you need any assistance working out what to do, please contact the school office on 01438 314189 – we will be able to help!
We would love to show you around our Early Years setting. We regularly conduct group show rounds, where you can take a look at the setting and ask any questions. Please contact the school office to book your place.
