ORION EDUCATION APPROVED BY DfE TO OPEN THREE NEW SCHOOL BASED DAY NURSERIES

We are delighted to announce that three Orion primary schools have been approved to open day nurseries as part of the new government’s drive to make nursery education more available to families. Our bids secured 450k of grant funding.  

As part of our trust strategy for communities, we made ambitious plans to open nurseries at Scotts Park Primary School, Blenheim Primary School and Ravensworth Primary School. We are thrilled that all three applications have been approved by the Department for Education.

At Orion Education we want to address the shortage of nursery places in our local area and to provide the community with high-quality early education for our youngest learners. This funding will enable us to transform unused school space into an engaging and vibrant environment, offering year-round childcare for children from three to five. 

Over the coming months we will be in contact with you to give further details on our plans and our timescales.  

We look forward to building three outstanding provisions that add to the Orion family of schools.
