DS is due to have a nursery induction on 29th and 30th March. WWYD?

My pre schooler has autism and has been offered a place at a specialist nursery, it is a small setting of 11 children and they want to do his induction at the end of the month before they close for the holidays.

I've been waiting for a space to become available and it is a fantastic place.

Due to his SN, they do slow introductions over a period of days so as not to overwhelm the new starter. They want to begin induction on 29th March.

I don't want to lose our place but I'm not comfortable with this at the minute, given the rapid spread.

Will he lose his place if I tell the manager it has to wait until after the holidays?

Would you go this month given how things are?

I would take it up and hope that they cancel/close.

Yes that's a good idea, they may end up closing themselves

In the same boat (without SEN). I'm carrying on as unusual but hoping that they close the nursery before he has to actually go!

Don’t worry about it. The schools are closing on Friday.

Pteu, I do hope so. Has this been confirmed yet?

Wait till nearer the time and speak to them If they say go then you should go. I very much doubt they will still be open by then though.
