Admissions

We welcome visits to the school throughout the year.  If you would like to find out more about Bedgrove Junior School, please contact the school office in the first instance - office@bjsglt.co.uk or 01296487973

For families looking to join us in Year 3 there are open days throughout September and October (held virtually when visits are not allowed on site) which allow you to experience the school during a normal day and find out more about the school. A further transition meeting is held in June/July once your child has accepted a place at our school.

If you would like your child to attend our school, please review the admission arrangements below.

Our primary school admission arrangements

The admission number for Bedgrove Junior School in 2025 is 120 pupils. The school’s published admission number is 120 per year group. Each year group is made up of three classes. We expect the Year 3 admission number in September 2025 to be 60 pupils.

The policies listed below set out the school’s arrangements for allocating places to pupils who apply for a school place during a particular year. Where there is an oversubscription the school’s admission policy is applied, and applicants are placed on the waiting list held by Buckinghamshire Council.

How to apply for a primary school place

Bedgrove Junior School participates in the Buckinghamshire co-ordinated admissions scheme as admissions to the school are controlled by the Local Authority. Full details on how to apply for school places through this scheme are outlined below. This includes children starting junior school or for in-year applications.
