The Published Admission Number for entry to the Reception Year (PAN)

The admission number indicating the minimum number of places available in the Reception year is currently published as 60.

Children starting school for the first time in September (the ‘normal’ admissions round) will be admitted up to this PAN, without condition, in accordance with the School Admissions Code.

The Admissions Authority is entitled to increase the PAN at any time, where it determines that more places can be made available without prejudicing the efficient delivery of education or the efficient use of resources. Any increase to the PAN will be notified as an alteration to this statement.

We also run agreed in year admission limits for certain year groups according to current need and resources to ensure the efficient delivery of education. The admissions committee meet regularly to review these. We also have a waiting list in some year groups managed by our oversubscription criteria. 

The current limits are as follows

Reception- 60 (this will be reviewed for 1/9/24)

Year 1- 56

Year 2- 53

Years 3-6 - 60 each
