Is your child due to start school in September?

Choosing your child's school is one of the most important decisions you must make.

We hold a series of structured school tours for parents and carers applying for a Reception place for their child throughout the Autumn Term of each academic year. These are publicly advertised and places must be booked.

The Avenue Infant School is a very popular school amongst families, is oversubscribed and has waiting lists for each year group. If you would like your child to join The Avenue Infant School family, you must apply for your child's place online by using this link: Applying for your child's school place

This section is aimed at parents/carers of children due to start in Reception in September after their fourth birthday.  We hope that you might find this information helpful in answering any questions you may have regarding your child starting school and help in preparing your child for their transition to school. For more detailed information on attending school, uniform, lunches, breakfast and after school clubs and so much more can be found in the Parents & Carers section.

If your child is joining us throughout the school year in any year group, please see the In-year transfer section below.
