ADMISSIONS

If you would like your child to attend our school, please see details of our admission arrangements below.

 

In Year Admissions

 

If you move to the village or surrounding area (or you wish to move your child from another school to this one) then please contact the school directly. It is recommended that you visit the school with your child to assess whether it is suitable; this will also provide you with an opportunity to meet the children and Headteacher.

First admissions to the school are organised through Suffolk County Council. We have adopted the Suffolk County Council policy for admissions which can be found here. The over subscription criteria for the school also follow Suffolk County Council's Policy. If the school receives more applications than it can accept then an appeal procedure is followed - if you are refused a place at the school please contact the school office and ask to speak to the Headteacher about an admission refusal.

 

Under Suffolk LA Admissions Policy there is a single admission date each year in September, for children whose fifth birthday falls between 1 September and 31 August. Children may be admitted into the Reception class full-time or half time, from the beginning of the Autumn term. It is possible to ‘stagger’ the start to school for children born in Spring or Summer. Please contact school or admission office for more details. Children must legally attend school full-time in the term following their fifth birthday, the national statutory school age.

 

The Current Pupil Admission Number (P.A.N.) for our School is 15.

 

Our Reception teacher provides opportunities, every Summer Term, for children to visit the school. She also makes visits to other nursery pre-school providers.

 

Visits to the school are warmly invited.

 

To apply for a primary school place for the 2024-2025 school year you need to apply by Monday 15th January 2024.
