Anybody else's child being kept behind from nursery because they was born after august. My son was born November the 23rd and he cant start nursery til september 2012 and it's really upsetting for me because i feel like his missing out on a year with his peers. :(

Yup they all have cut off dates. I know many children who have missed those dates, My son just made the cutoff by two weeks and I really wish he hadn't.

Hi thankyou glad to be back. The nursery he is going to is just a public state nursery its not attached to a school or anything they said when he turns 5 i will get a letter from the goverment asking which infant school i want him to go to. So i shouldnt worry then? im not trying to get rid of him but i hate to think his going to miss out. I am tho going to take him to toddler group thats two doors away which does a group 3 times a week for 3 hours and they have planned activties.

Hi Jen. Good to see you back. This is completely normal for a school nursery. His class peers will be all those whose birthday is from September 1st. Legally he will be entitled to 15 hours a week free of charge from January, but you will probably have to find a pre-school or private nursery, rather than one that is attached to a school. Hope this helps.
