Join Our St George's Family

Do you have a child due to start school in September 2025? Choosing a school for your child can be quite daunting and prospective parents often have lots of questions about the school and the process they need to follow. 

In deciding where you would like your child to go to school, it is really important to find out as much as you can about the schools themselves.

We welcome parents to make specific appointments to visit the school at any point during the academic year and we would ask you to arrange this with the office.

St. George's is a one-form entry Primary School, meaning that we admit 30 children per year into each year group; this is called our PAN.

Admission is decided on the following factors:

  1. Looked After Child
  2. Sibling Link
  3. Special Educational Need with an Education Health and Care Plan
  4. Distance 

If you are considering St. George's as an option for your child and they have a disability, it is advisable to contact the school so that we can discuss any adaptations that need to be made, before admission. 

The local authority (LA) deals with all admissions for children starting school for the first time and the link below will direct you to the Kent County Council website where you will find all the information that you require. If you have a child in any other year group, and would like to enquire about places, then please do so directly through the school office.

The school follows the LA’s admissions policy, a copy of which is available from the link below. KCC oversubscription criteria is outlined below the following images and further admissions' documents can be accessed at the bottom of this page.

All information can be found on the Kent County Council Website

 

Apply for a school place

Applications for 2026

For children starting school in September 2026 applications for both reception year and year 3 (junior school) open on Friday 7 November 2025.

Applications close on Thursday 15 January 2026.

You can apply for up to 3 schools.

  • Put the schools in order of preference.
  • We strongly recommend you use all 3 preferences on your application form. Initially, we are only able to look at schools you have named. If you do not name a local school, families who did name it may fill its spaces. This means it may no longer be an option if we cannot offer you one of your preferred schools.
  • Naming only one school does not guarantee your child a place at that school or give your child priority for a place over another child.
  • You are not able to name the same school more than once.

To apply for a school outside of Kent, name the school in your application with your other preferences. Your application details will be passed on to the relevant authority for processing.

We process applications between 16 January 2025 and 15 April 2026.

If you have applied but your circumstances have changed and you need to amend your application email kentonlineadmissions@kent.gov.uk so we can help you.

Summer born children

If your child was born between 1 April and 31 August and you want them to defer starting school until the next academic year, read our information about summer born children.

Special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) children

Most children with special educational needs and disabilities can attend mainstream schools, whether or not they have an education, health and care (EHC) plan.

If your child has an EHC plan, then their school placement will be arranged via the SEN Team.

Find out more about applying for a school place for your SEND child.

Additional information

You may need to fill in an additional form called a Supplementary Information Form (SIF) for some schools.

Contact the school(s) to obtain the form(s) and once completed return the form directly to them.

Free schools

There are no new free schools opening in 2026.
