Admissions FAQs

What are your main points of entry?

Normal entry ages are:

The Nursery (Children join the Nursery in the term of their third birthday).
Reception (Age 4+) and
Year 3 (Age 7+).

Limited places are available in other year groups for September and mid-year entry; please contact Tracey Mangold for further details. 

In the nursery, children often start on a part-time basis, attending a minimum of three of the ten available sessions. They can build these up to full time as they gain confidence.

Providing a space is available, we accept applications to Ripley Court School throughout the year.

All children are invited for a "taster" morning to meet the Headmistress with their parents.

Taster mornings are tailored to the age of the child, and may involve some reading, writing, spelling, and maths.
