The Newport admissions policy page
Our school follows the admissions policy of the London Borough of Waltham Forest to allocate school places.
Applications must be made on official forms and allocations are made by the School Admissions Office, Graylaw House, 394 High Road Leyton E10 6QJ . T. 020 84965900.
Forms are available from the admissions office and also distributed through the school once a year to pupils in our nursery classes.
If the number of applications is greater than the number of places, the following criteria are used:
* Pupils with statements of Special Educational Needs which specify our school.
* Children with disabilities who have limited mobility as accepted by the Education Department.
* Children who have a brother or sister on roll at the school at the time of admission
* Children living nearest to the school (we do not have a designated catchment area.)
* We cannot guarantee that pupils in our nursery will gain automatic entry into the main school.
Admission to Nursery
If you would like to enrol your child for our nursery, please bring their birth certificate or passport to our school office. We will take their details and contact you when a place becomes available.
Children usually start in our nursery between 3 1/2 - 4 years old. Before your child starts nursery, our Foundation Stage Outreach Teacher, Mrs Sharon Tomkins will, where possible, visit you and your child at home.
She will make arrangements for you to visit the nursery and settle your child in gradually. Children may attend for morning or afternoon sessions and parents can indicate a preference subject to the availability of places.
Reception Classes
We have 2 admissions to the school during the year. Children who are 5 between September and February begin school in September.
Those with birthdays from March to August start in the January of the school year in which they are 5. Parents and carers of pupils starting school are invited to an informal meeting to discuss intake arrangements.
Pupils from our nursery will experience planned transition activities to help them prepare for their move to school. Parents /Carers of pupils coming direct into school from home and other settings will be contacted by our Foundation Stage Outreach Teacher to make arrangements for their transition to school.
Other Admissions
Please contact the School Admissions Office, Graylaw House, to apply for a place. Once your child is allocated a place in our school parents/carers must contact our school office.
An appointment is made for you to visit the school with your child to meet our Inclusion Manager and discuss admission arrangement.
