Galaxy children’s place allocation explained.
All Galaxy place admissions must come via website form or school provided Galaxy form as emails will not be counted as place requests.
Galaxy spaces are permanent continuous allocated spaces until a parent/carer states that the space is no longer needed and a 2-week notice period then comes into effect.
Places are awarded as follows:
- Siblings automatically allocated spaces to allow continuation of care for families already present.
- Full-time care needed (Morning and afternoon sessions Monday - Friday)
- Full-time morning or evenings needed
- Part-time morning and evening sessions needed
- Part-time, mornings or evening needed.
- Singles sessions needed are then allocated to the different days needed with space available.
Ad-hoc sessions can be provided for children already attending Galaxy if space is available on days needed at an extra cost for emergencies, but not a service regularly offered.
New September school starters are not automatically assigned a Galaxy place and must apply via the website form or school provided starter pack.
