Join Our Pre-School

Our Pre-School is a wonderful place to begin your child's journey at Brierley Hill.

Children learn through a carefully planned combination of play, exploration, stories, talk and high-quality adult interaction. We want children to develop strong communication, confidence, independence and a genuine love of learning, building strong foundations for their future education.

We would love you and your child to come and see our Pre-School, meet our team and experience the provision for yourself.

To enquire about a Pre-School place or request an application form, please contact the school office. Our team will be happy to explain the current sessions and funded-entitlement arrangements, answer any questions and arrange a visit.
