Even if your child attends our preschool, an application to join the school must be made.

If your child attends our preschool and is in receipt of early years pupil premium or service premium, our admission arrangements have a supplementary information form (SIF) to be completed and submitted with your application for school (this includes online and paper applications). The SIF form should be completed and sent directly to the school.

We are offering a number of tours and visiting opportunities in the early Autumn. The dates can be seen below. Please get in touch via the school office to book your place!
