Joining Us - Admissions

We know that choosing a school in which your child will be happy, motivated and enthused is very important.  In order to provide you with the best possible opportunity to view the school whilst also ensuring we keep everyone safe, we invite prospective parents and children to take a tour of the school during the morning period. 

In the first instance, please contact the school office to register your interest so we can arrange an appointment to meet the Executive Headteacher and/or Head of School to view the school.  The office is open Monday - Friday 8:00am - 4:00pm during term times ​​​​​ Tel: 0118 9832332 or email reception@mrsblands.w-berks.sch.uk  Should you wish to view some of the exciting class work, outside visits and activities, the children have completed over the past term please peruse our website, (particulary our news and events section) and visit our class pages and our nurseries pages
