Reception Class Places - September 2023
Your child can start in Reception class in the September following their 4th birthday. All infant, first and primary schools in Hertfordshire provide full time education for those offered a place in Reception class.
Parents of children coming up to school age will receive a booklet from Herts County Council, which contains information on how to apply for a primary school place. Applications can also be made on line at www.hertsdirect.org/admissions. All responsibility for admission to our school lies with the education authority, so our Headteacher will not be able to give you a firm offer of a place.
