ENROLMENT FOR PRIMARY SCHOOL
Registration
The registration of children due to start school in August of any year will take place at the local school, within their catchment area. Official dates for registration will be announced in the press and parents will be notified concerning details of time, etc., by the local Head Teacher. In keeping with the policy of Townhead Primary School, parents are invited to contact the school at any time should they have a query with regard to the registration process. A child who reaches his/her fifth birthday between 1st March 2020 and February 2021 should be registered in the local Primary School before 1st February 2020.
Enrolment
Parents who wish to enrol their child at Townhead Primary School may do so on the specified day(s) or at a time convenient to both the parent and Head Teacher. An informal visit to the school prior to enrolment is encouraged. There will be an induction programme organised in April/May/June for our new P1 pupils and their parents. Within the programme the children will be given an opportunity to meet their new teacher and become familiar with the class environment. Our Primary 1 curriculum will be explained to parents and possible strategies for parents to carry out at home discussed.
