Admissions

Admissions to Main school

Please see our School Tour & Welcome page for a copy of the most up-to-date prospectus. There are separate arrangements for Nursery admissions.

Deciding which is the right school to apply to for your child’s education is very important. We are a school right in the centre of Jennett’s Park housing development.

For admissions into our Reception classes and all other year groups within the school, we work closely with Bracknell Forest Council who manage the process of application in line with our School Admissions Policy.

Please note, our Admissions Policy for 2026-2027 is currently under consultation.  Please see here for further details.

Unfortunately, attendance, or sibling attendance in school, does not guarantee a place in the nursery or main school.

How to apply

We work with Bracknell Forest Council (BFC) as part of the Co-ordinated Admissions Scheme. This means that it manages and administers the admissions process.

Visit the Bracknell Forest Council website to Apply for a Reception place in our school. Alternatively, to apply for children in Years 1-6, please see Bracknell Forest Council's In-year School Applications.
