Admissions
In year admissions
If you are applying for an in year admissions place for Reception to Year 6 and would like to look around the school, please contact Carol, our Deputy Headteacher with responsibility for admissions.
Information about in year admissions for Reception – Y6 can be found on Southwark’s website.
If a child is not already attending a Southwark school, parents/carers have to apply using Southwark’s Citizen Portal
If a child is attending a Southwark school, parent/carers should not apply using the Southwark Citizen’s Portal. Instead they should speak to their child’s current Headteacher who will give them a Southwark in year admission form to complete & hand in to our school office.
If your child has an EHCP then do not apply through Southwark admissions. Instead speak with your child’s EHCP coordinator about wanting to move them to this school.
Parent/carers wanting a Reception place after 1st Sep of the school year that their child should have started in Reception should apply for an in year admissions place. However if a child is already on the school’s waiting list for a Reception place having applied through Southwark, there is no need to apply again.
If when you apply, a place is not available, your child will be placed on our waiting list. When a place becomes available, it will be allocated according to the criteria on our admissions policy.

Reception application deadline

Nursery
We have a 2-3 year old nursery room and a 3-4 year old nursery room. Most nursery places are given out mid-May to start in September ie at the start of the school year.
Children are able to join the nursery throughout the academic year, for example in January or April 2026 if that is the start of the term after they’ve turned 2 or 3. However, this is dependent on us having spaces available in the appropriate room for when they want to start.
The school manages the applications for nursery places. Please complete the school’s nursery expression of interest form.
