The school operates with a Published Admission Number (PAN) of 30. Prospective parents and carers are encouraged to visit the school and meet the headteacher, Mr. Brockless, along with other staff and children, by arranging an appointment through the school office. Admission applications must be made through Leicestershire County Council Admissions Service, not directly to the school, even though Stonebow Primary School became an Academy in February 2013. The application deadline for the following autumn admission is January 15th. Children are eligible to start school in the autumn term after their fourth birthday. Missing the application deadline may impact the chances of securing a first-choice place. Information regarding admission policies for upcoming academic years and details on the appeals process are available on the school's website and the Leicestershire County Council website. The school also shares news and events, including activities like the KS1 Stonebow Walk, Robins planting beans, and Parent Coffee and Chat Club meetings. Pupils have also been involved in activities such as 3D design using CAD and preparing Greek food like Tzatziki, Hummus, and Flat Bread. What it's like Children arrive at the setting with smiles on their faces, happy to see staff and excited for the day's activities. They engage quickly in chosen activities, with older children showing concentration on tasks like making decorations for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, and younger children proudly displaying their creations. Staff plan activities that build on school topics, supporting children to share their knowledge. ## Pricing & funding Pricing on request This nursery doesn't publish its fees online.
