Foundation Senior School Open Events

Sunday 4 October - 10.00am to 3.00pm

Foundation senior school, Princethorpe College, is planning on holding an Open Day on Sunday 4 October from 10.00am to 3.00pm by appointment only.

The day will be split into three hour-long sessions and visitors will be asked to book a specific session, to help manage the numbers and adhere to government guidelines.

Places will be very limited and the event is aimed at families who have not had the chance to visit the College previously and have a prospective pupil for Years 7 to 10 specifically interested in September 2021 entry. A maximum of two family members will be able to attend with the prospective pupil.

Each session will open with a Welcome Address by our Headmaster, Ed Hester and then visitors will follow a tour route around key school locations.

At the moment, under the coronavirus restrictions, we are unable to welcome visitors into school on normal school days.

Depending on the developing situation we are planning a second Open Morning later in the Michaelmas Term. The Open Morning is scheduled for Thursday 26 November 2020 from 10.30am to 12.30pm and again will be by appointment only. 

For further information on admissions and entry to the College in 2021 visit our website or contact the Admissions Team on 01926 634201/634262 or by email admissions@princethorpe.co.uk.

The senior school entrance examinations for Princethorpe College, for Year 7 to 10 entry in September 2021, will take place this year on Saturday 23 January 2021 from 9.30am to 3.30pm.

 

 

Crescent School Autumn Open Events

Wednesday 7 October 2020 - 09.00am to 4.00pm

The Crescent School, the Foundation's junior school for 4 to 11 year olds in Bilton, Rugby, is opening its doors for an Open Day on Wednesday 7 October from 09.00am - 4.00pm by appointment only. This is an opportunity to look around the school on a normal working day and to meet the school's Headmaster, Joe Thackway.  The school is now accepting registrations for admission to current Reception, where this year there are two classes and Reception, Year 1 and Year 3 in 2021. There are a very small number of places available in other years - where year groups are full, there are waiting groups.  

The Crescent is also planning to hold a Reception and Pathfinders Nursery Open Evening on Tuesday 17 November between 7.00pm and 8.00pm, which will give parents an insight into the Early Years at Crescent and the firm foundation the school gives children for their future learning. Pathfinders, the on-site partner nursery, which has been rated ‘outstanding’ by OFSTED, will also be open on the evening should parents wish to visit. Once again this will be an appointment only event.

For more information and to book an appointment for either event please contact the Registrar, Mrs Helen Morley on 01788 523851 or by email on admissions@crescentschool.co.uk or visit the school's website http://www.crescentschool.co.uk/.
