Admissions
Places for Reception and junior school are applied for through your home council, not the school.
Apply for a primary school place on GOV.UK
How places are given: there's no entrance test. When there are more applicants than places, places usually go by criteria such as siblings, distance or catchment area. Check the council's or school's admissions policy for the exact rules.
Before and after school
No club is registered with Ofsted at this school's address. Ask the school about breakfast or after-school care, or find clubs nearby.
