Parents can apply for a place in one of our Reception classes from the September their child is three years old, ready for admission in the September when they are already four years old. The normal deadline for the application for Reception Year is 15th January of the year they are due to start, and place/s are offered in April. 

Please note we do not have a nursery and only accept children after their 4th birthday.

Parents who wish to apply to our school should apply directly to the Local Authority, please go to the Barnet Admissions website for further information on Primary admissions, including how places were offered last year.

Information about applying for a place in our school will also be given when you visit. There is no additional application form to complete for the school.

Once offers are made and accepted in April, the school contacts families with details of the induction process for our new reception children, and parents are invited to an induction evening in June.

Late applications are also welcome (there is always plenty of movement over the summer months), please go to "Making a Late Application" at Barnet Admission - Late Applications

Children are also admitted at other times during the year, depending on the availability of places and according to the London Borough of Barnet’s admissions policy.

(See the publication “A Guide to Primary Education in Barnet” or the Barnet website for full details). 

For children changing schools, or who are applying for a place mid-year (for example if you have recently moved into the area), please go to Barnet In Year Admissions for further information and to complete a form to go onto the school's waiting list.

If a place does become available for your child the admissions department will be in contact with you. Once a child has been offered a place, and it has been accepted, the school will contact you to confirm the induction process. We will arrange a meeting with our Head Teacher so we can get to know your child before we arrange the induction timetable. All children (regardless of age) start mornings only and will extend the day to full time once they have settled in.

Please note if you are applying for a place in Year Two (date of birth range 01/09/2017 - 31/08/2018) you will also need to do a separate application for a place in our junior school for Year Three to start in September 2024. Go to Barnet Admissions - Apply for Junior School for further information.

The criteria used for placing the waiting list include the following:

1. Children whom the Chief Education Officer accepts have an exceptional medical, social or educational need which the school is particularly able to meet. These will include children ‘looked after’ by a local authority under the provision of the Children Act 1989.

2. Children who, when the places are allocated, have a sibling in either the Infant or linked Junior School.

3. Remaining places are offered on a geographical basis, initially from the catchment area and then on distance from the school.

Please see below a map of our catchment area:
