Admissions Arrangements

Applying for a School Place

Our current (September 2024) pupil admissions numbers (PAN) are 60 for Reception, 60 for Year 1 and 90 for Year 2.

Henleaze Infant School has a well established induction program for children joining our school in Reception to enable us to tailor provision for children from their individual starting points. We recognise that some families may still choose to defer or delay entry for their child’s Reception year. If you are considering either of the above for your child, we request that you complete the form below, and the Headteacher will arrange an appointment.
