Kindergarten

Thomas’s Battersea Kindergarten is for children aged 2.5 to 4 years old and provides the initial stage of the Thomas’s Battersea Early Years programme. It is the beginning of a Thomas’s education, rooted in a broad curriculum, high academic standards and the importance of being kind. We offer a total of 40 spaces at Thomas’s Battersea Kindergarten, with 20 places available in Lower Kindergarten and 20 in Upper Kindergarten.

In Lower Kindergarten we have two intakes a year; September, for those born between September and March; and January, for those born between April and August.

Children can be registered from birth and applications are considered based on the number of days after birth that the registration was received.

Pupils at Thomas’s Battersea Kindergarten are an integral part of the wider Thomas’s Battersea community, where values are at the heart of our approach to learning. They have access to facilities, resources and experiences that are also available to the older children, further enriching their early years education. The Kindergarten curriculum is designed to support a smooth transition into Reception, as the children are not only familiar with the school’s facilities but also have developed the essential academic skills needed to thrive in the Reception curriculum and beyond.
