Plans for admissions in 2026
We are a three-form entry primary school with a Published Admission Number (PAN) of 90 when each year group was admitted to reception, giving us a total capacity of 630 pupils across the school.
From September 2026, in response to falling birth rates in the local area and a reduced demand for school places, we have taken the decision—supported by the Local Authority and the Department for Education—to temporarily reduce our Reception PAN to 60.
This is a provisional measure, and the PAN will be reviewed on an annual basis in line with local need.
