The Early Bird Pre-School is an early years' provider offering a home from home environment for children aged 2 years old onwards, making a transition from home to school as smooth as possible by working with the parents and school. It is set in the grounds of Beech Hyde School and enjoys close links with us.

They provide a variety of options of attendance, morning sessions, lunch and afternoon sessions and hope to open a breakfast club after Easter 2023 to support extended care options in addition to offering children currently attending our nursery class, an early start. They accept 2 year funded spaces offering 15 hours free childcare to those eligible as well as fee paying children.

For children attending our nursery school place, children can take advantage of continuing to extend their day by attending Early Bird from 11.30am each day to either take up the 30 hour entitlement or pay for extra hours. The Early Bird offer a full and safe transfer between the adjacent buildings, either from their breakfast club to nursery and/or from Nursery to the Pre-school at 11.30am.

The new website is in progress, but the main website for Early Bird Pre-School CIC is https://earlybirdpreschool.co.uk/ together with details of the second setting that they run.
