When and how do I apply?

We accept applications once your child is two years old. To apply for a nursery place at Robinsfield, you will need to apply directly to the school as we manage the admissions for our nursery. Please click below to download the application form. Please return the completed form to the school office.

We accept applications throughout the year for children who have already turned 3 and would like to start during the academic year.  

The closing date for applications to start in September 2025 is 21st April 2025. The outcome of applications will be received shortly after this date.

Any applications received after this will be reviewed after the first round of places have been offered.

 

When would my child start Nursery?

Children start in our Nursery in the term after their 3rd birthday.

 

How does the school allocate Nursery places?

There may not be enough places in the Nursery class to take all the children who would like to attend. For Community Schools, such as Robinsfield, where there are more applications than places, the school will allocate places in accordance to the published admissions criteria for Community and Maintained Nursery Schools. Please note that there is no automatic transfer from the Nursery Class to the Reception Class. There is a separate application procedure for Reception class places.

When would my child start Reception?

Children born between 1st September 2020 and 31st August 2021 will start in Reception in September 2025.

 

Applying for a school place in our Reception Class

 Parents must apply through the local council in which the child lives and complete the online application form on the eAdmissions website.

 

Under the Pan-London Co-ordinated Admissions System (PLCAS) all parents must list the schools they want to apply for, ranking them in order of preference. This is important, as potentially only one offer will be made and this will be from the highest ranked school able to make the offer. The Council will co-ordinate the admissions process to ensure that no child receives more than one offer of a place at a London Primary School (the highest preference for which they are eligible). It is therefore very important to put your preferences in the right order.
