In-year admissions
If you have moved, you can apply to change nursery class during the school year. This is called an 'in-year nursery admission'.
You can also apply if you want your child to go to a different nursery class.
Important information
The Enfield Schools Admission Service receives many applications and processes them as quickly as possible. You should get a response within 15 school days.
Submitting an in-year nursery application
You can apply for most community schools in Enfield and list up to 2 school preferences.
If places are available, we will offer you the highest preference possible.
Make sure you research the schools to help you make the right school preferences for your child, including finding your nearest.
When you submit your application, you must include the required documentation (copies of 2 proofs of address, and 1 proof of the child’s date of birth). Missing documents can delay the processing of your application.
You can send the completed form and supporting documents by email to esas@enfield.gov.uk, or by post to the address on the application form.
The in-year nursery application form is available to download below:
If you want to apply for voluntary aided (faith) schools or academies with nursery classes attached, you will need to contact the schools directly.
