Occasional Places
We welcome pupils to Maple Walk who miss out on Reception entry. Occasional vacancies can occur in Year 1 and above. In these cases, offers are subject to availability and assessment. This is to ensure that pupils joining the school will easily adapt to life at Maple Walk.
Please contact the registrar, who will be happy to advise if there is space in the desired year of entry and help guide you through the admissions process outlined below.
STEP 1: SCHOOL VISIT (if there is space in required year of entry)
Contact Registrar to Arrange School Visit & Meeting with Head
If there is space in the year of entry requested, the registrar will ask your reasons for moving school and for details of any specific needs (learning or medical) that your child may have. A school visit and meeting with the Head can then be arranged, which will be an opportunity for you to get a feel for the school and discuss your child’s specific circumstances.
STEP 2: REGISTER & PROVIDE SCHOOL REPORT
Complete Registration Process & Submit Latest School Report
If it’s agreed that Maple Walk is the right school for your child in your meeting with the Head and you wish to proceed with admission following your visit, we will ask you complete the registration process and submit a copy of your child’s latest school report (including any support plans if applicable).
STEP 3: ASSESSMENT (TASTER DAY)
Registrar to Provide Dates for Taster Session & reference request sent
Following registration and receipt of the school report, the registrar will then offer dates for your child to visit the school for a taster day. Prior to the this the registrar will send a reference request to your child’s current school. There will be informal assessments during the day and any specific SEND will be considered at this point. No preparation is required.
STEP 4: FEEDBACK AND POTENTIAL OFFER OF A PLACE
Feedback
You will receive feedback on your child’s day at school and, if an offer is made, the payment of deposit and fees will be due upon acceptance.

The best way to see the school in action is to book onto an open morning. These events last approximately an hour – you will have an opportunity to meet the Head and have a tour of the school led by the Year Six pupils. We look forward to welcoming you to Maple Walk soon.
