Admissions
Nursery admissions
To request a place for a child to attend our Nursery, parents should complete an application form which is available from the school office in person or by emailing sao@heronsgate.greenwich.sch.uk.
Children can come to the Nursery part time from the term after their third birthday (spaces permitting). We offer places first to those who have brothers and sisters already in the school, then Greenwich children living closest to the school and then children living in other boroughs ranked according to home/school distance. Applicants may be given higher priority if they have an Education, Health and Care plan (EHCP), are looked after or on the grounds of professionally supported medical or social need for our school.
Admissions for year groups Reception to Year 6

Please note: children attending Heronsgate nursery need to apply to join the Reception class. Our friendly nursery staff can help parents through this process.
Applying to a specific campus
On the initial application, parents apply to Heronsgate Primary School.
Once a place has been offered, our heads of school will ask families for their preferred campus. Whilst we can not guarantee a specific campus we will always do our best to meet the requests of parents.
