Description
The University of Birmingham has three Day Nurseries providing quality childcare and education for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years. They offer exceptional childcare provision, filled with fun and activities based on educational play where ideas can be explored and experiences shape, stimulate and develop precious young minds and bodies. The nurseries are registered with OFSTED and have received 'Good' and 'Outstanding' grading. This has included the creation of a pre-school unit at The Oaks Day nursery accommodating 40 children aged 3-5 years.
The nurseries operate from 07:30 until 17:55 Monday - Friday, 50.8 weeks of the year, closing on Public Holidays and University closed days. Children can attend full-time or on a session basis of morning and/or afternoon, enabling parents to make flexible use of childcare services.

Spend on this commodity estimated at between £185000- £240,000 per year.
