Admissions

To make an application to join us at Thomas Russell Junior School at the beginning of Year 3, or to move here at any point through Junior School, please contact the local authority to find out about our admission and appeal arrangements. You can do this by following the link below and completing the required forms:

We welcome visits from parents and their children before they join our school, either at one of our transition visits or an individual basis.  Please be aware that we are a very popular and heavily over-subscribed school.  We can only offer visits to prospective families if there is a realistic chance of admission in the coming term.

Please call us if you would like to discuss admission and arrange a mutually convenient time to look around our school.  We do operate a waiting list system for children living in catchment.  Our catchment area is outlined below in red:
