The School seeks to serve its children and local community. The school aims to provide a distinctively Christian education for children aged 4 to 11 years, with priority being given to children who live and worship within the parishes of Great and Little Ouseburn with Marton-cum-Grafton and Whixley with Green Hammerton, Arkendale, Dunsforth and Aldborough.
Admissions to Reception year group
All children usually start school full time in the September of the school year in which they turn five. Parents do, however, have the option of requesting that their child attends school on a part-time basis until the term after their fifth birthday.
