Useful Information for Prospective Parents

In January 2023, we added a sensory room, where the pupils can explore light, sound and texture in a risk free environment. Please come and have a look.

General

  • The school year is divided into three terms of approximately eleven weeks each.  We also offer care during the school holidays, allowing all year round care for parents who need this.
  • Progress reports are given towards the end of every term.
  • We operate an “open-door” policy, staff being available to talk to parents any morning before school or after school.
  • For lunch, children bring a packed lunch, or a thermos with hot food. We can also heat up baby or toddler dinners that are shop bought. Milk is supplied mid-morning, if desired. Click here for some tips on packed lunches. (Please note that Roxeth Mead is a nut free zone so kindly do not include nuts or nut products e.g. Nutella, in your child’s school lunch box).

Admission and Entry to the School

  • Registration: A registration form must be completed and a fee of £75.00 is payable for registering your child’s details with the school. Completion of the Registration From does not guarantee your child a place.
  • Assessment: We do not have a formal assessment, but we do meet with your child before entry.
  • Acceptance: When a place is offered an Acceptance Form must be completed and the deposit of £500 paid.
  • Failure to compete and return the Acceptance Form, Admission Form including medical information, and deposit by the stated date, may result in the place being offered to someone else on the waiting list.
  • Deposit: this will be returned when the child leaves the school, providing there a no debts owing and the correct notice period has been given.

Achievement

The children achieve highly in relation to starting points due to our quality teaching and small class sizes.
