Admissions
Our primary school admission arrangements
The admission number for the school in 2025 is 60 pupils. The school’s published admission number is 60 per year group. Each year group is made up of two classes. We expect the Reception admission number in September 2025 to be 60 pupils.
The catchment area of the school is available via this link. We also currently have a number of pupils from out of catchment.
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.
