Book your visit

Places must be booked in advance. Please use our online booking form to select the date and time you would like to attend.

To help us manage numbers, please book a maximum of two adults per family. Where possible, we kindly ask that children do not attend so that parents and carers can get the most from the visit. We appreciate that this may not always be possible.

Singlewell Primary School - Admission Arrangements

Singlewell Primary School is a community school and Kent County Council (KCC) is the admission authority.

The school's Published Admission Number (PAN) is 60, meaning that up to 60 children are normally admitted into Reception each year.

Parents and carers can find further information and apply online through the KCC Primary School Places website.

Oversubscription

Children with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) that names Singlewell Primary School will be admitted before the oversubscription criteria are applied.

If there are more applications than places available, KCC applies its published admissions criteria. In summary, priority is given in the following order:

1. Looked After and previously Looked After Children
2. Current Family Association
3. Health and Special Access Reasons
