Admissions
Our Infant Academy PAN (Planned Admission Number) for Reception is 60. We recently consulted to reduce the Junior Academy PAN from 90 to 60 for the start of the academic year 2024/25. This was completed with no objections. Please click here for a copy of the Consultation Report.
Admission arrangements
The school follows the Local Authority policy and arrangements for admissions. This information is available on the Norfolk Schools website at www.schools.norfolk.gov.uk where you can apply for a place at Wroughton Infant and Junior Academies.
