Welcome to Woodford Pre-School
We understand that starting Pre-School or moving setting is a significant moment for any child. We will do everything we can to ensure your child settles in smoothly to Woodford Pre-School.
We take our responsibility for your child’s personal and academic development seriously. We value strong home-school links and the positive difference they can make to a child’s happiness and success.
We hope you find the information provided on our website useful and encourage you to look at our school Instagram to get a flavour of life at Woodford Primary School. If you have any questions or queries, please do not hesitate to contact us on [email protected].

Admissions for September 2026 entry into Pre-School
The Laurus Trust is the Admissions Authority for Woodford Pre-School. The co-ordination and administration of admissions for entry is undertaken directly by Woodford Primary School.
Children are eligible for our Pre-School the year before they start school. If your child was born between 1st September 2022 and 31st August 2023, they are eligible for a place in our Pre-School starting in September 2026.
We offer tours for prospective parents/carers from September until the end of November.
If you are interested in applying for our Pre-School, parents/carers need to complete the Admissions Form which will be available from November 2025 to March 2026. Please note that offers for starting Pre-School in September 2026 will be made and shared by the end of April 2026.
Woodford Pre-School does not have a catchment area. If a tie-break is required to determine which child gets a place, we will refer to the criteria in our Pre-School Admissions Policy – see below in the Useful Information section. For any other policies, please visit our policies page.
