Proposal to extend the age range at Ewhurst C of E Infant School

Extending the age range of Ewhurst C of E Infant School will mean that the school would become a primary school, offering an education to children from Year Reception through to Year 6.

The school would grow incrementally, year on year, rather than admitting additional cohorts of children immediately. If the proposal is agreed, it is anticipated that the first cohort of pupils would transition from Year 2 into Year 3 at the school in September 2026. This would mean that Year 2 pupils would no longer need to secure a place at an alternative school for their junior education, but could remain at Ewhurst CE Infant if they wished.
