Admissions

The Local Education Service has an admissions policy and the school has a related policy for induction procedures that is available in its entirety from the Headteacher. There is a separate admissions policy for the Resource Base that has been drawn up in collaboration with South Gloucestershire Education Service.

The school has a standard intake number of 30 children in each academic year. If the number of applications for places exceeds 30, allocations will be made in accordance with the LES committee's criteria for admissions as printed in the booklet "Information for Parents - Admission to Schools in South Gloucestershire". Parents who are considering applying to the school for admission of their children are welcome to visit; please ring to make a convenient appointment. For children coming into the Reception class, there is a carefully planned induction programme.

For other Year Groups

Forms are available from the school office or from South Gloucestershire Council Admissions and Transport Unit - 01454 863155. These forms need to be returned to the Council (details are on the form). South Gloucestershire Admissions and Transport unit are usually able to tell parents if there is a place available within 1/2 days. If you are moving into the area, they require written evidence of the move, e.g. proof of exchange of contract, a letting agreement, or a letter from an employer confirming details of the move.

Pre-school to Infant and Junior to Secondary Transfer

We are developing good relationships with the local nurseries, pre-school groups and feeder secondary schools. At the time of transfer, arrangements will be made for the younger children to visit us and the Year 6 pupils to visit their chosen secondary school. Further details are sent at the appropriate time.
