Following on from the initial information shared via E-courier about the School Based Nursery Capital Grant Programme (SBN) – Phase 3 (2027 – 2030), an email has been sent to Headteachers of Primary Phase Schools* inviting Expressions of Interest (EOI) for the School Based Nursery (Phase 3) Capital Grant Programme.
* see School-based Nursery Capital Grant 2027 to 2030 Guidance (Page 8 – Who is eligible for funding) which is attached to the email.
The SBN programme aims to help more families access early years provision, particularly those in more disadvantaged areas, and give every child the best possible start in life, enhancing the overall local offer without negatively impacting provision in close proximity, including that delivered by private, voluntary, and independent (PVI) providers.
The deadline for EOI submissions is Friday 22/05/26
