With any admissions, we recommend you contact us for a look around. Come to meet the staff and pupils and get a feel for our warm, friendly and inclusive village school. We can accommodate school tours most days or out of hours if that suits you better.

We also have open days throughout the year – check our Facebook page for details or phone Mrs Woodruffe in the school office for upcoming dates. 

You can also look at the Down Ampney Primary School Facebook page to see what the school has been up to. 

Admissions for Reception

Intakes for Reception children will receive a common application form from Gloucestershire County Council, Wiltshire, or Swindon Borough Council depending on which district you come under.  This can be done by paper form or online and needs to be submitted by 30th January for admission for the following September.
