Reception - straight classes

Two Classes - Ducklings and Goslings

Year 1/2 all mixed 

Three Classes - Cygnets, Puffins and Starlings

Year 3/4 all mixed

Three Classes - Hawks, Robins and Owls

As soon as places are confirmed, we arrange an induction meeting for parents and provide an opportunity for the children to spend time in school. We aim to make starting school a pleasurable experience for all.

Feel free to call into school during the normal school day and we will be able to provide you with Worcestershire County Councils Admissions & Transfers to school booklet, and assist you with the necessary paperwork.

You can apply online by clicking below.

If you do need additional help you can come into St Richard's and the office staff will try to support you with the applications and the online process.

Mrs M Jewitt - Mon-Wed
