  • How to apply to Arc Nursery for a childcare place.

How to apply

We operate an equality of opportunity policy and ensure that all children have access to nursery places and services irrespective of their gender, race, Disability, religion, colour and creed, or sexual orientation of parents or carers.

The Arc Nursery operates a first come first served basis for those children who have been on the waiting list the longest, although those with siblings already at the nursery do get priority. Other factors deciding which child can be offered a place in the nursery are things such as extenuating circumstances affecting the child’s welfare or the welfare of his/her family.

Sign Up For Our Waiting List

To apply for a place on the waiting list please download, fill out and send back the application form after paying your £100.00 non-refundable registration fee. You can do this either by bringing it back to us here at The Arc in person and handing it in, or by sending it through the post to The Arc Nursery, 39 Crosby Row, London, SE1 3YD.
