Transfer/Enrolment

The enrolment of a child due to start school in August will normally be done in January, during a week set by Education and Families and published in the local press. During that week, parents who reside in the local area should bring their child along to school with the child’s birth certificate and council tax bill as proof of address.

Parents who reside outside the local area but wish their child to attend Victoria Primary School should contact the Head Teacher of their local school and enrol their child in the first instance. Parents would indicate they wish to make a placing request to Victoria Primary School at this time.

Registration at other times can be made by a personal visit to the school. An appointment is not necessary.

Pre Entry Programme

Towards the end of May children who have registered to attend Victoria Primary School will be invited to spend two afternoons with the P1 teacher. Parents are invited to two induction meetings where they can find out about the start of their child’s education and ask questions and discuss any concerns they may have. This year’s induction programme is subject to NLC and Government guidelines.
