Admissions information for families
If you would like your child to attend our school, please review the admission arrangements outlined below.
Our primary school admission arrangements
The admission number for the school is 210 pupils. The school’s published admission number is 30 per year group, apart from Year 3 where we can take 32. Each year group is made up of 1 class. We expect the Reception admission number in September 2025 to continue to be 30 pupils.
The policies listed below set out the school’s arrangements for allocating places to pupils who apply for a school place during a particular year. Where there is an oversubscription the school’s admission policy is applied, and applicants are placed on the waiting list held by Buckinghamshire Council.
Please take the time to read the relevant policy below.
