Save Milton Keynes College Little Explorers Nursery
Milton Keynes College has plans to close its Little Explorers Nursery,the nursery is a vital service that staff and students depend on to balance work, study, and family life. Its proposed closure will have a significant negative impact across the college community. First and foremost, the closure will disproportionately affect economically and socially deprived students who rely on the nursery’s bespoke and supportive provision—support that cannot simply be replaced elsewhere.
Why is this important?
Removing this essential service will create new barriers to learning, participation, and employment at the college, undermining the ability of many to continue their courses or sustain their roles.
We call on Milton Keynes College to halt the closure plans and work with staff, students, UNISON, and the wider community to find a fair, sustainable alternative that protects access to childcare.
UNISON will keep in touch as the campaign develops
