Over Subscription Criteria

Late applications

Any applications received after the closing date will be accepted but only considered after those received by the closing date. You are therefore encouraged to ensure that your application is submitted on time.

All supplementary information, such as medical letters to prove change of address, remains the parents’ responsibility to supply.

Fraudulent information

If a place has been allocated on the basis of fraudulent or intentionally misleading information, the Academy’s governors reserve the right to withdraw the place.

Fair Access Protocol

The Academy will participate in full with the Local Authority’s Fair Access Protocol in order to ensure that the most vulnerable children are offered a place at a suitable school as quickly as possible.

Our Pupil Admission Number is:

30 for 4+ EYFS

This will continue to be the school admission number for the subsequent years.

We currently have 8 classes which range from 19 to 31 pupils per class.  Children start at Broomfield in the Autumn term following their 4th birthday.  The children attend mornings only for the first two weeks, then they are full time from the third week.

We are pleased to welcome you to our school via our website. At Broomfield we encourage all prospective parents to take a look around our school as there is no substitute for an actual visit.
