This guidance outlines key considerations and requirements that schools should consider if they want to open or expand a nursery on their site.
Updated the information in 'Establishing school-based nursery provision' about prescribed alterations, reflecting the new regulations that amend the process schools need to follow to add a nursery to their provision.
Updated 'Establishing school-based nursery provision' to clarify that if school-based provision is exempt from registering with Ofsted or a childminding agency, it must still comply with the compulsory requirements of the childcare register.
Updated to include chapter summary for high-quality learning environments and to clarify that schools may need the Secretary of States consent before a lease is granted to a private, voluntary or independent (PVI) provider or childminder.
