The Governing Body of Atwood Primary School is consulting on its Admissions Policy (Criteria) for entry to the school from September 2012. Children may be admitted to the Nursery or to the main school (Reception or in-year admission) and there are two similar, but separate, policies for this.
Croydon Council administers admissions from Reception to Year 6 using our criteria, but the school administers admissions for entry to Nursery (using the same criteria). By law, entry to Nursery does not advantage a child's admission to Reception.
Very little has changed in the criteria, but we are required to consult as some of the wording has changed.
Any comments should be sent by email: or by post to:
The Admissions Officer, Atwood Primary School, Limpsfield Road, South Croydon CR2 9EE
The consultation period began on 4th January 2011 and closes on 1st March 2011.
The policies are available as a PDF download:
