How to join Warwick Prep

Visit Us

We would recommend your start your journey with a visit to Warwick Preparatory School if you have not already been. This can be in the form of a private tour during the school day, or on an open day. Many families do both so they can experience every aspect of the school and the nursery itself.

We would be delighted to welcome you, so please contact our Admissions team to organise this or find upcoming events on our events page. These events are a great opportunity to find answers to your questions, whilst our Admissions team will also be happy to talk to you about anything you want to know.

We are happy to welcome you as many times as you would like while you are deciding on the right place for your child.

Apply

When you are satisfied that Warwick Preparatory School, and Squirrels, is the right place for your child, then it’s time to make an application and pay the registration fee. You can do this via our simple online form and we will also require that you upload your child’s long form birth certificate that lists both parents.

Apply

Offers

Most of our nursery offers are made at the end of the summer a whole year prior to starting at Warwick Prep and places do fill up so we would encourage early registration. We typically make a second round of offers later in the autumn term the year before starting at Warwick Prep if spaces remain, and after this, we recommend checking to see if spaces are available ahead of registration. We will communicate with you whether your child is being offered a place or not and the offers will be made via email using the email addresses provided when you registered.

Offers

Accept

If you have been made an offer of a place, we will ask you to accept your place by a deadline clearly communicated on your offer letter. To accept your place, we require a copy of the acceptance form signed by all parents with parental responsibility unless we already know that this is not possible (typed signatures are not permitted). We will also ask for payment of the acceptance deposit at the same time – more details on this can be found in your offer letter.

Accept

Nutkins

Once we have your acceptance forms and your deposit, you are ready to become a part of our Warwick Prep School community. You will receive an invitation to our Nutkins group – a Thursday morning stay and play session for children whose parents have accepted a place in the nursery for the following September.

Nutkins runs in each term prior to the year of joining. It is not compulsory to attend but many families find it a fun and enjoyable way of getting to know fellow parents, for their children to make friends and to get used to the environment of the nursery before they start.
