As you will be aware, as your child is now in Year 4, they will be moving on to the next phase of their education in September 2021. The portal for applying for Middle School places in Northumberland is now open and closes on Saturday 31st October 2020. Further information about the admissions process can be found by following the link below:
http://www.northumberland.gov.uk/Education/Schools/Admissions.aspx
Final confirmation regarding the allocation of places is made on Monday March 1st 2021.
Due to the current situation regarding COVID-19 and the restrictions that are in place, we are unable to offer the opportunity for you to come and visit the school in person as we ordinarily would. However, in order to help you make your decision about which school to apply to, we have produced a set of resources and information about the school.
These can be accessed via the following link:
Chantry open evening resources 2020
Within this site you will find a promotional video, a presentation by Mr Stewart, a tour of the school by our current Year 6 students and a gallery of photographs.
It is obviously of great disappointment to us that we are not, currently, in a position to welcome you into school in person and hope that these materials will give you a flavour of our school and help inform your decision.
You can also view our main website chantry.the3river.net and follow us on twitter @MorpethChantry to access more information about our school.
As you will be aware, Chantry and Newminster Middle Schools work closely together and are both popular and oversubscribed schools. We would therefore strongly advise that you indicate both schools, in your order of preference, on your application form.
If you have any questions or queries in the meantime, about either school, please do not hesitate to contact Sarah Hall on 01670 513621 or via email at [email protected] or [email protected].
