Subsidised/Not Subsidised Places
We have 27 places that are subsidised for working families on lower incomes of £140,000 or under and eligible to claim family tax credit. To apply for a subsidised place you must be an Islington resident. Please ensure that you tick the correct box (Subsided or Not Subsidised) as you will be offered a nursery place based on this. Proof of income will be required. The remaining 27 places are not subsidised. Please refer to our fee sheet and indicate which of the options below applies to you.
Please Note: Once you are offered a nursery place, if for any reason the place is not required your application cannot be deferred, however your application will remain on file unless you let us know otherwise.
Days Required
Please note: we only offer 2, 3, 4 or 5 day places which must be consecutive beginning or end of week.
2 day places: Mon/Tues or Thurs/Fri
3 day places: Mon/Tues/Weds or Weds/Thurs/Fri
4 day places: These are 2 * 2-day places, available on Mon/Tues & Thurs/Fri
Parental Contribution
Highbury Community Nursery is a community nursery supported by a committee of parents. Parental contribution and involvement is therefore compulsory: your child's place will depend on this. Please ensure you will be able to make this commitment before returning this application form.
