During the Summer term before the children begin school, new parents and children will be invited to take part in our Induction Programme.  This provides opportunities for us to share our philosophy and provide information about ways in which parents may wish to support their child’s induction.  There are also opportunities for parents and children to become familiar with the school community and the curriculum. Our published Admission Number (PAN) is 15.
