Budhill Family Learning Centre was opened on the 3rd July 1993. The centre provides quality, flexible early learning and child care for children birth to 5 years. Budhill Family learning Centre is a non-denominational nursery situated in the Shettleston area of Glasgow. All places are allocated in line with Glasgow City Council’s admissions policy taking into account of the individual needs of the children and their families.
We offer 122 full time equivalent (FTE) places:
9 FTE places for children aged 0-1 years,
18 FTE places for children aged 1-2 years,
25 FTE places for children aged 2-3 years,
70 FTE places for children aged 3-5 years.
Each age range are allocated to a room named after trees or flowers found in Scotland. The 3-5 years room which accommodates the largest group of children have chosen tree names. The children were included in the process to research and choose these names and also took part in the vote for the final choice.
