Admissions

Thank you for taking the time to consider St Michaels RC Primary School for your child. Choosing the right primary school is such a major decision for any family and we appreciate that you will need to take your time to look around and learn as much as you can about our school before making your decision.

Our Admission Registrar, Mrs Hurst, will be happy to give you a personal tour of the school on any day that suits you. You can see our pupils at work, talk with their class teachers and meet with our head teacher to gain a thorough overview of our school and to begin to gauge whether this is the right school for your son or daughter.

Please call Miss Hurst or Mrs Cleall-Harding to discuss an introduction for you.

The school participates in the local authority’s Fair Access Protocol to allocate places to vulnerable and other children in accordance with the School Admission Code 2014.

Admitting pupils under the protocol may require the school to admit above the planned admission number for the relevant year group.

Children may be admitted into the Nursery class at the beginning of the term following their 3rd birthday, if a place is available. St. Michaels RC Primary offers five part time sessions (either morning or afternoon) each week throughout the school year.

Nursery places are limited. To be considered for a place in the Nursery, you will need to complete an application form. Any application will be considered using the school’s admission criteria as laid out in our FS1 Nursery Admissions Policy.

Medway Council is responsible for coordinating the allocation of school places in Medway. They provide detailed information about the application process.

Remember, you will still need to apply for a place in Reception, even if your child is already a pupil in the Nursery.
