Thank you for considering Silsden Primary School as the school that you wish your child to attend from September 2022. I know this is a huge decision for you, especially if this is your first experience, and I hope that the following will help answer some questions that you may have which could inform your decision.

Parents should take time to consider our school website and read our school prospectus and also look at our twitter page. Our Curriculum Newsletters and Home Learning ideas are full of information about the kinds of things children learn with us. This will answer many of your questions and give you an idea of what life is like at our school. We encourage all prospective parents and children to come and visit our school. We would be proud to show you and your children around – please contact the school office on 01535 210666, to arrange a convenient date and time.

We have also attached a prospective parent booklet and a frequently asked questions sheet which we hope will cover any questions that parents who are considering their child’s primary school ask. If there are still further questions that are specific to the needs of your child then contact us directly at school and a member of the school’s Senior Leadership Team will do all they can to answer them.

Once children have been allocated to our school, we will contact parents individually to set out the arrangements for transition and how we will be planning to prepare you and your children for starting. We will also give you information about opportunities to visit our new school buildings.
