The school is part-way through its expansion to four forms of entry and will continue to expand by one form of entry in Years 4 (in September 2023), Year 5 (in September 2024) and Year 6 (in September 2025) until it is fully four forms of entry in all year groups.
All pupils starting the school in Reception from September 2022 onwards will be educated on the Hackbridge Corner site. They will remain educated on this site until the end of their year in Year 2.
For their Years 3 & 4, all classes in the the year group will move to the London Road site.
For Years 5 & 6, the year groups will return to the Hackbridge Corner site.
Arrangements for Reception children starting school in September are as follows:
If you have a confirmed place with either of these services, the school's Breakfast Club can take Reception children from Thursday 15th September 2022 and the Jancett After School Club can take Reception children from Friday 16th September 2022. You need to apply for places at these directly with each service separately – places are limited and spaces cannot be guaranteed.
The Sutton School Nursing team will be offering a regular telephone clinic every Tuesday throughout the summer holidays between 10am - 1pm. Parents/carers are able to call the admin team on 020 8770 5409 during office hours (9am - 5pm) Monday to Friday to book an appointment for a telephone call on the following Tuesday. This will be available for families with children starting Reception class in September 2021 to discuss any concerns which they may have regarding their child's health, such as issues with eating/behaviour/bed-wetting.
The School Nursing Service have made a short video which you can see here.
All parents are reminded that, as a four-form entry school across split sites, pupils will move between sites during the course of their primary education with us, as outlined under the arrangements from September 2022 onwards above.
We teach the children that they are part of a four-form, split site school and they are made familiar with the two school sites through visits and whole school assemblies throughout each year.
The Headteacher advises parents in the summer term each year if a year group cohort is being mixed into new class groupings. Such decisions are always made with the best interests of the whole cohort in mind.
The start and finish times of the school day are staggered across the two sites to allow for walking distance between sites for parents who are collecting from both sites. From September 2022, Breakfast Club will starts 75 minutes earlier than the start of the school day on each site - this will be 7.30am at Hackbridge Corner and 7.45am at London Road. PLEASE NOTE that the Breakfast Club on the London Road site will never open earlier than 7.45am when pupils transfer from Hackbridge Corner to the London Road as start times have already been adjusted 15 minutes on each site to accomodate parents dropping off to two sites and distances to local train stations.
Places will be offered out at the end of May 2022 to those pupils who are eligible to join the nursery in September 2022 year.
Please contact the School Office if you have any queries.
