New Intakes
Where learning is fuelled by creativity
Nurturing talents, encouraging voices and embracing difference. We make sure that everybody is included, supported, valued and free to be themselves. In our community, everyone belongs.
Exciting topics, real-world adventures, the great outdoors and our wider community – we use all these and more to inspire curiosity and wonder. We build the confidence to ask questions, challenge ourselves, use initiative and become eager to seek out more.
Small steps, fantastic feats and extraordinary efforts. Individual and shared. Sporting, musical, academic or social. Whatever shape or size, we encourage and celebrate all successes with passion and pride.
Join us, and let’s see what’s possible
I feel privileged to be the headteacher of such a welcoming and inclusive school, and because each of our children are unique, I am excited every day to watch each one learn, grow and thrive.
This section contains everything you need to know when you’re considering applying for a place here, and what happens when your child is due to join us. If you’d like to visit us, or if you’d like more information, please do get in touch, we’d love to hear from you.

We can’t wait to welcome new children to our Early Years classes this September!
Our induction period starts right now … and finishes when your child is settled.
Starting school is a really big part of any child’s and parent’s life and we always like to make the experience as smooth as possible for you both. At Threemilestone School we strongly believe that good communication is key, so we are keen for you to get to know us properly before your child even starts with us! In our summer term, Mr Knight and Miss Grubb will make contact with nurseries and preschools to gather all necessary information.
We have set out our transition plans to guide you through every step of the way!
Step 1:
Telephone call from the school – 17th April
Mr Knight and Miss Grubb will telephone you to introduce themselves, have an initial conversation and find out about your child’s preschool experiences. It is really important to gather as much information as possible about your child so that the transition is smooth!
Step 2:
Open visits – 3.45pm Monday 13th May, Tuesday 14th May Wednesday 15th May
This is an opportunity for you and your child to pop in and visit Threemilestone School, have a look around the classrooms and meet some of the staff. We will meet in the hall at 3.45 on any of the dates above, welcome you there, and then explore our classrooms. Stay as long as you need to!
You will also have the opportunity to sign up for a time for the meeting described in Step 3, so have your diaries ready!
Step 3:
Individual meetings for parents/carers and children to meet teachers – 1st, 2nd, 3rd July
These meetings with both class teachers will take place in school. During these meetings, there is an opportunity to share information about your child: what they enjoy doing, what they find tricky, what their self-care skills are like, any potential areas we need to know about. This is also a time to share any information about additional needs and family set ups.
Step 4 :
TMS Picnic – 6th July 1130
This is an opportunity for you and your child to come into TMS and enjoy meeting new friends with your family (parents /carers, grandparents – all welcome!), and spend time both inside our school building exploring without the older children being there, as well as relaxing in our outside environment. Come anytime between 1130 and 2, bring a picnic, a rug and be ready to meet our team!
Step 5:
Zoom meeting – 6pm Tuesday 9th July
This meeting will include what you are able to do to prepare your child for starting school, how important the partnership between home and school is, which class your child will be in, and general information such as uniform, lunches, the remaining induction period, funding, and timetable of the day. The Zoom invite will be on the dates section of the school website.
Step 6:
‘Drop in’ – Anytime between 8.30am to 4pm Thursday 5th September
On this day, you and your child are welcome to ‘drop in’ to school together and re-familiarise yourselves with the classroom and meet our EYFS staff. No need to wear a uniform as you will just be ‘dropping in’. Please bring wellies in a named carrier bag and PE kits to hang on pegs ready for the first day! If you can avoid 12.30-1 we would appreciate it as then we can have a quick lunch break!
Step 7:
‘Stay and Play’ Day 2 From 8.30/9.00 – 11.15/11.30 Friday 6th September
Now that you know the routine, what the classrooms are like and have met all the staff, in this session you will be able to drop your child at the classroom door, just like when they start school, and collect them again at from the external doors of the EYFS classroom. To ensure that all children start and leave the session calmly and positively, we have ensured that there is a staggered start and end so we don’t have all 30 children arriving at the door at the same time!
Step 8:
Starting school! – Monday 9th September
Once again, I would like to thank you for choosing Threemilestone School for your child and we are looking forward to welcoming your family to our school to be part of something very special!
