Admissions

We currently have a growing roll of over 120 pupils and welcome enquiries from prospective parents. 

We are subject to admission arrangements laid down by the Dorset Local Education Authority. Children are admitted full time in the September of the academic year in which they reach five years of age. Our Planned Admission Number (PAN) is 20 for each curriculum year group.

During the summer term before children start school we hold an open meeting with parents to explain more about our school and curriculum. There are also some taster sessions for children to spend some time in the classroom and meet their new teacher and classmates.

Children from all other year groups are admitted to the school provided there is room. It is helpful if they are able to visit the school beforehand to meet their teacher. If you have a child of school age and are moving to Dorset, please contact Dorset Council School Admissions Team to apply for a place here, their contact number is 01305 221060.

Further information on our admission policy and a link to this can be found at the bottom of the page.
