Admissions

It is intended to admit a maximum of 60 pupils at the beginning of the new school year. St. Cuthbert's follows the admission procedure suggested by the L.E.A.

 

At St. Cuthbert's, the children will enter a purpose built Department that puts the reception year as a high priority. All parents are invited to visit the school before the admission of their children and discuss with the Head and class teachers any issues or concerns they may have. We are happy to accommodate any parent requesting a tour of the school.
