If you are eligible for the Welsh Government's Childcare Offer for Wales, it is important to be aware that your child's nursery education hours form part of the overall funded provision available to you. During term time, the Childcare Offer provides up to 30 hours a week through a combination of nursery education and funded childcare. The amount of additional childcare available will depend on the number of nursery education hours provided.

A Nursery place at Gendros does not automatically guarantee a place in our Reception class.
Admissions for Reception and all other main school year groups are managed by the Local Authority (LA) rather than directly by Gendros Primary School.
Parents and carers will be informed when the application process opens and closes. Applications are completed online through the Local Authority admissions portal.
