| Admission Arrangements The school is able to admit 45 pupils in Year R (the Reception Department). As this essentially amounts to a 11/2 form entry, there will be a mixture of children from two age groups in some classes. Where this is the case a child's progress is not affected in any way, because as each child is viewed as an individual. I line with goverment requirements all classes in Yr R, Yr 1 and Yr 2 will be kept to 30 children. We have opted to employ an extra teacher in Reception in order to split this year group into 23 and 22 children.
