We usually hold open mornings for prospective parents in the autumn term. Dates for these are set in the summer term for the following year.
We are an academy school and part of Trinitas Academy Trust, which is the admissions authority for all schools in the Trust. The admissions policy includes our over-subscription criteria. As we are over-subscribed every year for our Reception classes, we strongly advise you to familiarise yourself with these criteria before applying. You will then be able to complete the application form, and supplementary information form, and also submit the correct evidence.
Applications for Reception are generally made online via Bexley Admissions or through paper copies available from Bexley and our own supplementary information form which can be obtained from the school. Our office staff are always happy to help you to complete these forms.
The published admission number of the school is 90.
Children are admitted to the Reception classes in the school year after their fourth birthday. All children will be admitted to the Reception classes in September. Parents may ask to defer the admission of their child until later in the school year or for their child to attend part time provided that every child is attending full time by the start of the term after their fifth birthday. Parents wishing to defer are invited to discuss that decision with the Principal.
Applications for admission to the Reception classes will be coordinated by the London Borough of Bexley. Decisions on allocations against the criteria are made by the Admissions Panel of the Governing Body. Queries about the Admissions Policy should be addressed to the Chairman of Governors, via the School.
Applications for admission are welcomed from all parents who may wish their children to be considered for a place at Christ Church (Erith) C of E Primary School. Applications for the Reception classes must be made on the common application form or online for the local authority in which the family lives. Any parent wishing to apply using criteria d and e (outlined in the Admissions Policy) must also submit a Supplementary Information Form (SIF) to the school. Both forms must be received by the published closing date. The SIF is available from the school or can be downloaded and must be accompanied by the child’s birth certificate and your current council tax (original documents). Please bring these original documents into the school. Please do not send in the post.
Please contact the school office to find out if there are any places in the relevant year groups. We will always contact the previous school to discuss your child and to find out how they are academically, behaviourally and socially. Your will be asked to complete a Transfer Support Form along with your application. Bexley Council manage all school waiting lists, and these are also sorted by the over-subscription criteria as set out in our Admissions Policy. All in year applications via our Supplementary Forms must be accompanied by the child’s birth certificate and current council tax (original documents) and the Trinitas Faith form (where applicable).
Accessibility for pupils, parents and staff with disabilities
We are an inclusive school. To ensure we are in line with the Disability Discrimination Act , we have a range of support in place for pupils and adults with disabilities. We have a proactive approach to promoting disability equality and eliminating discrimination. We have produced a full disability access plan which will ensure that we will not treat disabled pupils or adults less favourably for a reason related to disability. We take reasonable steps to ensure that disabled pupils and adults are not placed at a substantial disadvantage compared to their peers. If you have any accessibility or disability requirements, please contact the school office.
