About the School
Admissions Policy
Admissions to the Nursery
Children enter the Nursery in the September after their 3rd birthday, when a space is available. They attend for either a morning or an afternoon session.
Applications should be made before a child is 3. No child under 3 can be admitted into the Nursery. In the Summer term parents will receive a letter offering them a place for the coming September. Prompt acceptance of the place is necessary or it will be offered to someone else. A meeting is held early in the Spring Term so that parents can meet the staff and find out more about the Nursery and its organisation. If you accept an offer of a place there will be another meeting in July.
Entry for children is staggered so that children and staff can get to know each other in small groups. Practitioners make a home visit before each child starts so that the child can get to know his/her new teachers in a familiar environment. It is also a good opportunity for parents and carers to find out more about the start to Nursery. The term starts with a ‘Play Day’ for parents and children together.
Admission to the Infants
Please note that a place in the Nursery does not guarantee an offer of a place in Reception
Children are admitted into Reception in the September following their 4th birthday. As for Nursery parents are invited to attend an introductory meeting in the Spring Term and in the July before their child is due to start school.
Current Nursery children who are offered Reception places will visit their new classrooms and there will be an opportunity for children new to the school to meet each other and staff in the Summer term. In September entry is staggered over the first few weeks enabling a smooth transition between Nursery and Reception.
Admissions into other year groups will be considered in relation to the London Borough of Hounslow’s ‘’Admission Arrangements for Primary Education’’ Policy and the number of places available.Parents/carers are required to provide information about the previous school experience before a place is offered.
Admission to the Juniors
Parents are invited to apply to Strand on the Green Junior School in the Year 2 Spring Term.
