September 2027 Admissions
Please note that, as we are a community school, Surrey County Council is the admission authority for Prior Heath. If your child was born between 1st September 2022 and 31st August 2023, you will need to apply online via Surrey County Council for a September 2027 Reception place in an infant or primary school. Applications will be open from November 2026 until 15th January 2027.
During the autumn term we will be running “talk and tour” events for parents who have children that will be starting school in September 2027. These sessions will be led by our Headteacher, Mrs Lindsey Chivers, who will give a talk about Prior Heath and this will be followed by a tour of the school and grounds.
Each session will last for approximately 1 hour and needs to be booked in advance. As these are quite formal sessions, we do request that children are not brought along please.
Talk and tour dates (all sessions run for approx. 1 hour):
Thursday 8th October 2026 from 9.15am to 10.15am
Thursday 15th October 2026 from 9.15am to 10.15am
Friday 6th November 2026 from 9.15am to 10.15am
Wednesday 18th November 2026 from 5.30pm to 6.30pm
Friday 27th November 2026 from 9.15am to 10.15am

If you would like to book one of the above sessions, please email the school office: [email protected] or phone 01276 25546.
We look forward to meeting you.
