Proud member of the Excelsior Multi Academy Trust We have 14 mixed ability classes across EYFS, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. Admission to the school is non-selective and follows Local Authority guidelines. Four to five year olds will be in one of our Reception classes and will follow the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum.
Five to seven year olds are in Years 1 and 2 and follow the KS1 National Curriculum. Seven to eleven year olds are in Key Stage 2 and follow the KS2 National Curriculum. The local authority co-ordinates applications to EYFS which can be made on-line or by completing a Local Authority Preference form before the closing date.
The school deals with in-year admissions, so if your child is already at school and you are interested in moving them mid-year, please contact the school office for further details. We share a large site with a Children's Centre, Rubery Nursery School and Colmers Senior School and Sixth Form College; enabling families to access one location from Nursery through to Sixth Form.
