Visiting the School
We have organised two Showcase Event evenings for prospective parents to attend on Thursday 7th November and Tuesday 12th November 2024. Further details are available via the ticket booking link below. We suggest that these events are for adults to get to know the school and understand the processes of admission; content and timing are not necessarily suitable for young children to attend,
Child-friendly events take place in our Spring and Summer terms when your child's place has been allocated.
Entrance to these events is by ticket which can be booked (free of charge) here:

School Prospectus:
We no longer pubish a paper-based prospectus for the school.
We have been a full three-form-entry school since September 2021, meaning there are three classes in each year group from Foundation through to Year 6, totalling a full cohort of 630 pupils.
We are generally fully subscribed in all year groups, but occasionally have a small number of spaces available due to the transient nature of some of our families linked to their professional employment, training or research.
The school does not maintain its own waiting lists for year groups. All admissions processes and waiting lists are handled by Sheffield City Council's Primary Admissions. See link in the text above.
