Nursery school expansion for town hit by childcare crisis

A nursery attached to Chandag infant school in Keynsham has announced it will be opening up more nursery places. This comes as local parents have been campaigning for adequate nursery provision in Keynsham following the closure of several private nurseries in the area.

Futura Learning Partnership, the multi-academy trust responsible for the local infant school following its creation in 2021, confirmed the expansion of its 3-2-4 playgroup. The exact numbers or whether the new places will be available by September 2023 is set to be finalised in the summer.

It is expected that the expansion will double the number of places available for three and four-year-olds at the campus. Families will be able to select part-time provision of 15 hours a week or full-time of 30 hours. Breakfast club and after-school childcare will also be available.
