Walberton Pre-School

The Walberton Pre-School is based out of the Walberton Village Hall, where we have a wonderful and motivated staff. During the academic year, we are open for morning sessions from 9:15 am to 12:15 pm on Monday through Friday and for afternoon sessions on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday from 12:15 pm to 3:15 pm.
Helen Baxter and Mandy Foulds, who both reside in Walberton, are the owners and directors of the Walberton Pre-School. Since we have been operating the preschool together for more than 17 years and have seen more than 400 children come and go, we have had the privilege of working with a wide variety of kids and families.
Children leave us to transfer to their local large school because our family come from a diverse geographic area. This academic year, these institutions include The March School in Chichester, Barnham School, Slindon CE Primary School, Walberton & Binsted CE Primary School, and others.
We have an Ofsted registration number of EY281732. When we were most recently inspected in January 2020, the grade was "Good." By clicking here, you can access the complete report on the Ofsted website.
From the term after their third birthday, all children are eligible to receive 15 hours of government funding.
Additionally, funding is offered to qualified families for a total of 30 hours each week. Please visit www.gov.uk/childcare-calculator to see if you qualify.
Some kids as young as 2 are also qualified for support. Please call the WSCC Family Information Service at 01243 777807 or visit www.westsussex.gov.uk/freechildcare to determine your eligibility. Please let us know whether you are qualified and intend to request the 2-year financing so that we can request it directly from WSCC.
The government's Tax Free Childcare programme is registered to pay Walberton Pre-School.
