Reception Admissions
Compulsory education for children starts at age 5.
We have provision for 30 children in our Reception class. Children generally start school in September of the school year in which they turn 5, but Hertfordshire now allows parents of summer born children to apply for a school place in the year after their child’s 5th birthday.
School Tours
Prospective parents are more than welcome by appointment to come and take a tour of the school.
Tours will take approximately half an hour. Outside learning is important to us and we will want to show you our range of facilities so please bring a coat if cold or wet! Please note we are unable to offer parking on site.
To book a place on one of these visits please fill in the below Form.
Reception Tour Booking - online booking is now full, please contact the School Office.
We look forward to meeting you.
