General Information

Arrangements for visits from parents considering applying to the School

The school has an Open Evening in October each year when all existing and prospective pupils and parents are invited to visit the school. There will be an opportunity to view work, watch performances by various groups and meet pupils and staff in an informal and, hopefully, informative environment.  Parents of girls in Year 6 are invited to a formal presentation by the Headteacher on that evening. Immediately following Open Evening we also offer prospective pupils and parents the opportunity to tour the school during a normal working day.  If you are interested in gaining this different and more detailed perspective then please contact the school on 01403 254932.

At all other times parents should contact the school to make individual arrangements.

Admissions Policy

Transfer to Secondary School
Parents have a right in law to express a preference for the place of education for their children and forms for this are circulated to all primary schools within the area in September. These have to be returned by the end of October to the Education Office which then allocates places. Once a school is oversubscribed places are allocated according to strict criteria, details of which can be found in a document outlining the Authority's policy and arrangements for admission and transfer and the provision within the County of primary and secondary schools.  Copies are available free of charge from the Education Office (North) or any of the maintained schools.  Parents who wish to apply for a place from outside the area should contact the Education Office (North).

Enquiries about admissions other than a normal secondary transfer from primary school should be directed, in the first instance, to the school on 01403 254932.
