Areas of Learning

Our nursery provides pre-school education for children aged 2-4 years. We have a 39 place nursery offering both 15 and 30 hours (with a 30 hours entitlement code) free early learning care and development to 3 and 4 year olds from the term after the child turns 3. Sessions can be taken between the hours of 8.50am and 3.00pm as 5 half day sessions or a mix of full and half days with lunch. 30 hours are 9am to 3 pm every day during school term hours. Parents can also pay to add extra sessions for £12.50.

We also offer ‘Play and Learn’ sessions of 15 hours per week for eligible 2 year olds. If you believe you are entitled to a free Play and Learn place for your two year old and have not received a golden ticket apply using this link. https://education.durham.gov.uk/SynergyWeb/Parents/default.aspx

If you believe your child may be entitled to 30 hours of Nursery Education you can apply for a code using this link.

Our nursery is a fully integrated part of the school with well-equipped indoor and extensive outdoor areas where children can find out about the natural world and develop physically, socially and intellectually. All staff are highly qualified with a fully qualified teacher and dedicated members of the team.

If you would like to apply for a nursery place, please pop in to the school reception and fill in an application form. Visits to the nursery are warmly welcomed.

What will my child learn at Bullion Lane Nursery?
The EYFS consists of seven areas of learning and development. Each has a number of ‘Early Learning Goals’ which most children are expected to achieve by the end of the Reception year in school, and broad stages of development which help show children’s progress towards the goals.

Nursery Website

Children should firstly develop three prime areas:

  • Communication and language
  • Physical development
  • Personal, social and emotional development

The prime areas are most essential for your child’s healthy development and future learning.

The prime areas will help develop skills in four areas:

  • Literacy
  • Mathematics
  • Understanding the world
  • Expressive arts and design

We use these seven areas to plan your child’s learning and activities. The teacher and Key Workers supporting your child will make sure that activities are suited to your child’s unique needs.
