The application fee for Kindergarten is £60 + VAT. Please note that whilst our Kindergarten tuition fees for children in Kindergarten One and Two are VAT-exempt, the application fee is for the paperwork/checking involved in taking on a pupil and therefore required to have VAT applied at the rate of 20%. This fee is non-refundable.

Additional application documentation to provide within ten days from the Offer Letter date:
*The limited number of Early Learning & Childcare (ELC)-funded places are offered on a model of five days until 3pm during term time. Occasionally, we can offer a model of three days until 5.30pm. Offer Letters are provided up to six months ahead of enrolment. Places are first allocated to our enrolled Kindergarteners (who can begin on pattern of three mornings a week). The few remaining spaces are allocated to applicants according to our Waiting List Criteria.
**4.5yo if an application for a further Kindergarten year is submitted to Edinburgh Council by the end of February. Deferred children typically are in Treetops for two years before joining the school.
A Further Kindergarten Year
All children aged 4-years-old in Scotland at the start of the academic year have the legal right to a further funded year in nursery, before embarking on their school career. Parents are, however, required to submit an application to Edinburgh Council by the deadline of the end of February.
Deferred-ELC funded children attend Treetops - which brings together our future Class 1 cohort in a holistic, familiar Kindergarten environment. We are sadly unable to offer all kindergarteners attending Blackbird, Acorn, Greenfinch and Appleseed a place in Treetops, as its size reflects our school class cohort sizes. Places are allocated first according to our Waiting List Criteria. Treetops children who have successfully passed their trial period have a place reserved in Class 1.
