Nursery Class 2025-2026
All the places for Nursery 2025 have now been allocated. However, if you would like to apply for the waiting list, please email us or collect an application form from the primary or secondary reception. If a vacancy arises during the academic year, we would contact you to offer the place.
Nursery Class applicants for 2025-2026 must have a birth date between 1 September 2021 and 31 August 2022. Please do not complete the 2024-25 form if your child's date of birth is outside these dates.
If you wish to apply under the Medical and Social Needs (exceptional circumstances) criterion, you will need to provide written evidence to the school of your child’s significant social or medical needs, addressed to the Admissions Officer, William Hulme’s Grammar School, Spring Bridge Road, Manchester, M16 8PR.
Examples of significant medical or social circumstances which the Academy may be able to take into account would be:
- Your child has a sensory impairment and needs to walk to the closest school for safety reasons.
- Your child has a serious physical disability which means they are unable to walk long distances or use public transport, and this is your nearest school.
Please note that being in WHGS Nursery Class does not guarantee your child a place in Reception, because there is no automatic transfer from Nursery to Reception. You must make a separate application for a Reception place in the appropriate year.
