ADMISSIONS TO THE WELLDON PARK ACADEMY

 

Our academy is so much more than just a website and that is why we are so keen for those interested in joining The Welldon Park Academy to come and meet Mrs Bates, our Associate Headteacher, to have a tour around the school! You will have the opportunity to see learning in action, get a glimpse of school life and have the chance to ask as many questions as you like about school life.

 

We know choosing a school is a huge decision for parents and children alike. Come and visit - you won't be disappointed!

 

We are a part of an Academy Trust, however Harrow Council manage our admissions.

 

We do a prospective parent/carer tour every Tuesday morning at 9:30am.  If you would like to have a tour, just phone the office on 020 8864 9378 or email office@welldonpark.theppt.co.uk

95% school population live within the red area shown in the map. This helps to create a close community.

 

However, there are exceptions who live slightly further, defined by the orange areas.

 

Our Published Admission Number (PAN) for Reception is 60 children over two classes. The change of PAN from 90 to 60 was in response to the demand change in our part of the Borough, meaning we had surplus places. Please refer to the attached School Adjudicator’s report.

We follow Harrow Borough’s Fair Admissions Protocol regarding oversubscription.

 

There is a commitment to Infant Class Sizes of 30 with two adults per class.
