Does anyone have any children that have gone or go to Keresley grange primary school? Don’t know if anyone whose children go here so it’s difficult to make an opinion!
Thank you
Uk Liverpool based, my little one was 3 in September when and how do I apply for reception/school ? Currently in a private nursery not attached to a school or reception. Starting to panic as people saying o should have or should be looking and applying 😬. Thanks
If you can share the nursery name too that would be helpful but don’t worry if you prefer not to! Just doing some research as the nursery my little one goes to, charges about £38 a day for consumables and food on funded days so we aren’t really saving much with government help which is a shame! Thanks so much! X
