We will be holding school tours in Autumn 2025. We will advertise the confirmed dates shortly and provide a form to sign up.
If you have recently moved to the area and are interested in an in-year admission, please contact the school office directly.

Nursery Admissions
We welcome children the term after they turn three, with intakes in September, January, and April. However, our nursery often fills up quickly, especially in the Autumn term. If your child is eligible to start in the Spring or Summer term, we cannot guarantee a place will be available immediately, and they might need to wait until the Autumn term for a vacancy.

The application deadline for the 2026/2027 academic year will be 15 January 2026. We will be uploading the application form and guidance to our website very soon.
