Information on Published Admission Number (PAN)
Published Admission Number (PAN):
At St Andrews Primary School, our Published Admission Number (PAN) is set at 9, which means we can accommodate a total of 63 children in our small nurturing school. This PAN is determined based on our capacity and resources to ensure that each pupil receives the attention and support they need to thrive.
Deferring Entry to Reception
For parents considering deferring their child's entry to reception, it's important to understand the options available. Deferring entry allows parents to delay their child's start in school until they feel it is the right time for them. This can be particularly beneficial for children who may not be ready to start school at the usual age.
For further details on deferring entry to reception, including guidelines and procedures, please refer to the following link: Deferring Entry to Reception.
