Admission to Foundation Stage 2 (Reception)

Children enter Foundation Stage (FS2) at the beginning of the year in which they are 5 years old. There is only one admission date: September.

All children start FS2 in September. All parents, as part of Rotherham LA’s admission policy have to apply to the Local Authority for admission to the school of their choice. Places are allocated by the Local Authority.

All parents have to fill in the Admissions Form to apply for a place for their child to attend the FS2. The admission limit for the school is 60.

There is an Appeals procedure to follow if entry is refused for your child: www.rotherham.gov.uk/info/100005/education_and_learning
