I have asked this question to my Local Council and they say a child does not have to go to school until the term after their fifth birthday and this applies all over Great Britain, so no preschool is not compulsory in england. it is a personal choice and dont let anyone push you into making a choice you dont feel is right.

i don't think it is compulsory, but if you can get a place it helps the child when they start school, even 1-2 days a week would be helpfull

Definitely not. Its up to you, and sometimes it dosn't make much difference whether they've been or not. If they go, you may be expected to help out. Its one way of meeting people.

No, it can be difficult to book and get a place I think. Good luck
