New to Reception
Thank you for considering Northway Infant School and Carrant Brook Juniors for your child.
We understand that choosing a school is a very important decision. Before doing so, we strongly recommend a visit to our two schools and a personal tour with Mrs. Danielle Morley our Headteacher or a member of our Senior Leadership Team. You will be warmly welcomed and will be able to see what happens on a day-to-day basis and find out how children learn through our exiting and engaging curriculum.
Northway Infant School has a set Published Admission Number. This is the number we are obliged to admit into each year group. The number is agreed with Gloucestershire County Council and is currently 30 pupils each year (90 pupils in total).
Although the Trustees have responsibility for deciding on admissions, the Local Authority will co-ordinate all admissions in its area and will communicate all admission decisions to parents/carers.
The Gloucestershire School Admissions website provides thorough details about applying for a school place, ranging from general booklets and guidance, the appeals process and school transport when you don't live within walking distance of the school. It can be accessed by clicking here
