 Applying for a Primary School Place (Reception September 2023)

 

If you have a child due to start school in September 2023 (whose date of birth falls between 1st September 2018 and 31st August 2019) you have from 4th November 2022 until 16th January 2023 to apply online for your child’s place at www.kent.gov.uk/primaryadmissions.

 

Choosing a school for your child is one of the biggest decisions you will make for them and we know you will be desperate to choose the one that is right. We are here to help you every step of the way and to answer your questions. We would love to welcome you on a tour of the school and show you all that our lovely school has to offer your child.

 

We held our busy Open Days recently, but don't worry if you missed them,  please call the school office on 01227 272101 and we will be happy to show you around our lovely school.

 

Meanwhile, for a glimpse into our school and to see us in action please see the film below which we made when touring wasn't so easy due to the pandemic. The children loved helping to make the film! Mr Cooper, our Executive Headteacher, has also made a film of his usual welcome talk.

 

We wish you and your family well as you make this decision and hope to see you soon!

Our popular Robin Hood climbing frame has recently had a new safety surface installed and the children are really enjoying using it
