All visits are during the school day and include a walk through the school, exploring the Beddington Infants’ School experience. Visits usually take about an hour – please just let us know if you can’t stay for the whole tour so that we can adapt it slightly.
You are welcome to bring young children with you – but we do ask that you do your best to ensure that they don’t interrupt the provision.
We are looking forward to meeting you!
Applying for a place for your child to join Nursery
The Nursery has 2 sessions, morning and afternoon. There are also some full time places, with 26 children in the class at any one time. Children will usually start in the Nursery in the autumn term following their third birthday.
All applications to The Nursery are handled by the school. Applications can be made from October onwards, with a closing date in mid January each year.
We are currently taking applications for 2021/2022 (this is for a September 2022 start). If you would like to make an application or would like to talk to someone about the process, please contact the school office and talk to Sinead Allen on 020 8647 7813 or by email to office@beddingtoninfants.org.uk
Applying for a place for your child to join Reception
The deadline to apply for your child to join Reception is 15 January 2022.
There are 3 Reception classes with 30 children in each. The transfer to the Reception classes takes place in the September following a child’s fourth birthday. The offer of a Nursery place is not a guarantee of a place in Reception, as a child who has not attended the Nursery class can apply directly for the Reception classes in the September following his/her fourth birthday.
Applications to all schools in Sutton are handled by Sutton Admissions Team. For further information please click here to visit the London Borough of Sutton Website, alternatively they can be contacted on 020 8770 5000.
Applying for a mid-term transfer
If you move into the area and your child would like to join the school, a place will be dependent on there being a place in the correct year group and then the normal school admissions criteria.
If your child is joining the Nursery cohort, please contact the school directly. If your child is joining the Reception, Year 1 or Year 2 cohort, please contact the Sutton Admissions Team, as all admissions for these Year Groups are handled through them. For further information please click here to visit the London Borough of Sutton Website, alternatively they can be contacted on 020 8770 5000.
