Leeds Grammar: Private school announces plans to expand nursery provision to two-year-olds

The Grammar School at Leeds (GSAL) has announced that from September 2025, its nursery will begin welcoming children from the age of two, marking an exciting new chapter in the school’s early years provision.

This expansion comes as part of GSAL’s ongoing commitment to supporting families from the earliest stages of their child’s education, offering a nurturing and stimulating environment built on the school's Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) provision.

Gabrielle Solti, Vice-Principal and Head of GSAL Primary. said: “We are thrilled to be expanding our nursery provision to welcome two-year-olds from September. This exciting development allows us to offer more children the opportunity to experience the exceptional care, learning and sense of community that GSAL is known for.

“Our youngest learners will benefit from a nurturing environment that lays strong foundations for future success, and we look forward to supporting them as they begin their educational journey with us.”
