Administrative history

The committee was established in 1974 because there was a demand from staff and students who had to spend too much on childcare and also due to the merger with Sidney Webb bringing more mature students.

Campaign for nursery started in 1975 when PCL got the council's approval, found a site and staff. In 1976 the Finance and General Purposes Committee recommend £3000/year for 3 years made to PCL from Kynaston Studd Memorial Fund to adapt the basement at 20-28 Bolsover Street for a nursery. The nursery finally opened to children aged 2-5 years on 18 Jan 1978 with Pauline Snook as the Nursery Supervisor and Karen Clark as Deputy Supervisor. Between 1978-1980 there were 16 children, and in 1980 20 children. In 1982 a campaign for under 2s nursery started but by 1990 it was still not in place. 1991 saw the end of Bolsover St lease and the nursery moved to Marylebone.
