Admissions
If you have secured a place to start at Sapperton C of E Primary in Reception, we will be in touch very soon with all the exciting things we have planned for the summer term. We cannot wait to welcome you into our school family.
We still have a few spaces for Reception starters so please do get in touch if you are interested. Sapperton has so much to offer every child and we would welcome you to visit. Please get in touch with Mrs Meg Crampton, our Head of School, by emailing m.crampton@sapperton.gloucs.sch.uk.
At Sapperton Church of England Primary School, we have 7 year groups in 3 classes from Reception through to Year 6. We currently have spaces in some year groups.
Maple - Reception, Year 1 & 2
Rowan - Year 3 & 4
Elder - Year 5 & 6
The Pupil Admission Number (PAN) for each year group is 12 which means that we can accept up to 12 children in each year group. However, should a place be refused due to full-capacity, you can appeal using the Gloucestershire County Council appeals process - see below.
If you are interested in securing a place at Sapperton, please email to arrange an appointment to visit and see just how much we could offer your child - admin@sapperton.gloucs.sch.uk, or call on 01285 760325.
