Childcare Advice 

We work with local nurseries to help provide local quality childcare provision.

The university recognises however that student parents will only leave their children in childcare surroundings that they feel comfortable with. It is therefore worth viewing the link below to check the local registered childcare providers (including day nurseries, childminders, out of school care & crèches):

Schools Advice

For current or prospective students who have children of school age understandably the choice of local schools is very important. Within Gloucestershire children will either be assigned to their nearest state school, or be accepted through a school's admissions procedures. To assist student parents with their investigations they are advised to look at the following website for more information on the county's primary, secondary and special schools:

Some parents may also wish to investigate independent schools, the web-link below can assist with their investigations:
