A letter containing the outcome of their child's application to primary school will be sent to parents/carers in the first class post on Wednesday 18 April 2012.
If the applicaton was made online, you will be able to log on to see the outcome of your application on Wednesday 18 April 2012 after you have received an email informing you that your outcome is available to be viewed at www.eadmissions.org.uk. It is anticipated that this will be some time during the evening. The availability of results for viewing will be staggered to assist demand, so precised timings cannot be guaranteed.
Latest news: Please note that the governing bodies of both Orleans Infant and St Stephen's Church of England Junior have given their in-principle agreement to converting to become two-form, all-through primary schools in September 2012, subject to the approval of statutory proposals and planning permissions. That means that both schools intend to admit 60 children into Reception in September. Parents who have already applied online for a reception place for September 2012 and who would like to add St Stephen's as a preference, can do so by logging in to the online portal and changing the details of their application. Any parents who have applied on paper and would like to add St Stephen's as a preference should contact the Admissions Team on 020 8891 7514 or email education.admissions@richmond.gov.uk.
