Admissions Policies

Admission number and process 

The school has an admission number of 60 for entry in Reception. 

Applications in the ‘normal round’ (that is the main cycle of applications for Reception places from the beginning of the school year) are administered on behalf of the Springhead Park Primary by Kent County Council as part of the local coordinated scheme. 

Appeal

If your child is due to start Primary school, you can appeal if you are refused a place at one of your preferred schools on National Offer Day.  Please contact Kent County Council for details about the appeal process.  An appeal hearing will be arranged, and you can attend this in person and/or contact your local County Councillor for support.  Please call 0300 041 4222 or email appeals@kent.gov.uk.
