Admission Arrangements

Richard Atkins Primary School, Reception – Year 6

Richard Atkins is a community school that welcomes children between the ages of 4 and 11. Additionally, it offers a nursery which admits children aged 3 to 4. Currently, it operates as a 1.5 form entry school with a planned transition to a 1 form entry. This means there are 45 places from year 4 to year 6, and 30 places from Reception to Year 3. The nursery provision has 26 full-time equivalent places.

Richard Atkins Primary School is an inclusive school that welcomes all learners regardless of race, gender, and ethnicity or religion, stage of English learning, ability, special educational needs or impairments.

Applications for a school place are made directly to the local authority in which you live.
