Nursery

We manage our own Nursery Admissions in accordance with Croydon Councils admissions criteria (see Croydon School Admissions link below). We admit 52 Nursery children at the beginning of the Autumn Term once they have reached 4 years of age.

The Nursery day consists of 2 separate sessions – Morning from 8:50am to 11:50 am and Afternoon from 12.15 pm to 3.15pm, there are 26 children in each session which you can state a preference for one or other on your application form.

Nursery applications can be downloaded below or collected from the school office. Please complete the form and return it to the office. For all of our school admissions we ask to see your child's Birth Certificate and proof of home address. To arrange a tour please contact the school office on call or email.

Reception

Was your child born between 1 September and 31 August? If so you MUST apply for a primary school place for them.

Apply now: If you are familiar with the process and already have an eAdmissions account you can apply straightaway. Application deadline: 15 January next year

If your application is late it will not be considered until all applications received on time have been processed and your child would be unlikely to receive a place at one of your preferred schools. Help your child by being one of the nine out of ten parents who apply on time.

Class Placements for Twins and Multiples

The current research does not provide good accounts of the effects of classroom separation on the development of twins. There is currently no clear evidence to support the belief that separation provides greater outcomes for individuality.
