Reception September 2027
Admissions and Transition
We admit 30 children each year in the September after their fourth birthday. We have a thorough and supportive transition process to ensure every child feels confident and ready for their first day with us.
- Our staff visit local nurseries/pre-schools to get to know your child before they join us.
- We offer full-time education from the start of the academic year for our new Reception children, after a few shorter settling in days, which works wonderfully for our children.
