Somerhill Additional Information

Admissions process

Once you have registered, your child joins our waiting list. They will be offered a place when it becomes available (Nursery and Kindergarten) or invited to a taster session (Reception to Year 8). From Reception to Year 8, children are asked to participate in a taster session before an offer of a place is made. Your child will be teamed up with a ‘buddy’ who has similar interests and will attend lessons and activities during a typical school day. Taster sessions allow your child to understand and engage with school life and encourage a smooth transition when moving schools.

Our three most common entry points at Somerhill are Nursery, Reception and Year 3. Children can join us anytime during the school year, subject to availability. Our youngest pupils can join us for our Nursery provision when they are two and a half years old. Children may also join in September after their third birthday when they can join our Kindergarten for the school year before Reception. Children are also welcome to join Somerhill directly at Reception. Once you decide you would like your child to join Somerhill, we ask that you complete our registration form and pay a £150 fee per child. This is a non-refundable registration fee.
