Church Lane - Coldwaltham - Pulborough - West Sussex - RH20 1LW Trip to St .Martin’s C of E Primary School On Friday 29th September, Yew class together with Year 6 from Amberley went to visit our link school, St. Martins’ C of E Primary in Brighton. The key purpose of the trip was not only to establish links but for our children to note the similarities and differences between a Village and an Urban School. The day was really enjoyed by all the children - St. Martin’s Year 6 children gave us a tour of the whole school and then all the children had a chance to play with children from St. Martins at lunchtime. The Head of St. Martin’s also took us for a walk to their local church so the children could have some time to explore a church on a bigger scale. Overall it was a fantastic opportunity and the children have written some follow-up work about their visit. We hope to receive visitors from St. Martin’s in the not too distant future. Inset Days Please remember there are two Inset Days coming up where the school will be closed. Friday 20th October, the staff will be joining together with all the schools in the Rother Valley area for a joint strategic planning day and on Friday 3rd November, the staff will be attending a conference with Staff from all STARS and Chanctonbury schools for a combined training day on ‘Pupils Social and Emotional Well Being’.

  • Information for Parents Booklet and Appendix 1
    Appendix 1 This Appendix lists the oversubscription criteria for all schools which do not use the West Sussex County Council standard oversubscription criteria for Community and Voluntary Controlled schools (reproduced at the bottom of this page). It includes all Church Voluntary Aided Schools, Foundation Schools, Free schools, Academies as well as Community and Voluntary Controlled schools which use variations of the standard West Sussex County Council oversubscription criteria. Where a school was oversubscribed in September 2020 the number of places offered in each category are listed beside the criteria. For oversubscribed schools the total number of places offered, together with the criteria and distance of the last place offered, is shown at the bottom of the oversubscription criteria. FAITH SCHOOL ADMISSION ARRANGEMENTS and COVID-19: Some faith based admission authorities define children's or families' membership or practice of the faith for the purpose of school admissions through regular attendance at a place of worship over a specified period. Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, there have been restrictions on the opening of places of worship (especially for communal worship) and parents and their children may have been unable to attend their place of worship as normal. This has meant that faith schools with admissions arrangements that prioritise applicants based on membership or practice of the faith, evidenced through regular attendance at a place of worship and/or at communal worship, may find their admission arrangements have been affected for the September 2021 intake. When making a preference for a faith school please check the school’s website to see what changes to their arrangements they may have made.
