Admission Arrangements
Please note that children attending the Broadmere Primary WILL NOT automatically secure a Reception place at the school in the year that they turn aged 5. There is a separate admissions process to join Reception. Parents of children attending the Nursery needs to follow the Primary School Admissions Process, which is run by Surrey County Council (please see the Admissions section of the school website). Reception places will be offered based on the admissions criteria. No preferential treatment can be given to those attending the Nursery at Broadmere Primary.
A booklet is produced annually by Surrey County Council, providing information about all primary schools in the county. Parents should complete the application form provided with the booklet and return it to the local authority for admission to reception at Broadmere.
Prospective parents/carers are welcome to request a visit to the school prior to completing an application. Please phone the school office to arrange a tour. Before joining our reception class pupils are invited in for an induction programme (during July) and parents will meet the teaching staff to discuss the organisation of the year, the curriculum and any relevant information the parent would like to share with us. The school accepts applications for pupils to join other year groups providing spaces are available.
