We are a primary school catering for children aged 4 to 11 years old. Children are admitted during September in the school year in which they are 5, in accordance with the School's Admission Policy. Spread the word to friends and family who have a child starting school. Please telephone the school office for an appointment or for further information.
Children in Classes R, 1 and 2 are entitled to a cooked school lunch every day courtesy of Government funding - this scheme is called 'Universal Infant Free School Meals'. Good food and good food culture has been shown to lead not only to healthier, happier and more fulfilled children, but to improved educational attainment.
Children at St. Margaret's-at-Cliffe Primary School use the Internet on a regular basis as part of their learning. In school, we have regular 'e-safety' activities to remind children of the importance of keeping themselves safe online. At home, sometimes children can be given unsupervised access to the Internet.
