Reception 2026
Reception 2026
Please can we remind all parents whose children are due to start Reception in September 2026 that the deadline for Primary School applications in Cambridgeshire was on January 15th 2026.
If your child was born between 1 September 2021 and 31 August 2022, and you live in Cambridgeshire you need to apply for Reception for September 2026. Parents must apply via their local council's website, even for schools in other areas and even if they have missed the deadline.
Submitting after January 15th makes it much harder to get a place at a preferred school, as these are considered after on-time applicants.
National Offer Day for primary places is usually April 16, 2026.
Attendance
Attendance
Even though attendance at Preschool is non-statutory it is important that your child attends regularly. We understand that sometimes they are ill or may have another authorised reason for absence but attending Preschool consistently is very important for their development. Preschool helps prepare them for school by forming key attachments outside the family unit.
If your child is going to be absent please call or email the Preschool as early as possible.
Lateness
Lateness
Please can we remind you that late collection of your child can cause them distress. If you are unavoidably late for any reason please ring us so we can explain to your child what is happening and avoid any unnecessary upset.
A late charge will incur for regular late collection.
Snack time
Snack time
Please can parents & carers remember to bring in snacks for the week on a Monday. If all parents participate there will be enough snacks for everyone. Just a pack of apples and a bunch of bananas would be perfect to share. If you have any questions regarding snack donations please speak to CC or Nic.
