September 2027 intake

Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you'll make in their early lives. We understand how important it is, and we are pleased to be able to offer school tours. The tour dates for 2027 starters will be shared in early September but do get in touch via the office if you have any questions in the meantime. 01935 840407 or office@cdcs.uk. 

We are offering Stay and Play sessions in the autumn for you and your child to immerse yourselves in our school life. Details can be found below. You are also warmly invited to our open day where you will be able to tour the school and speak to some of our wonderful children and staff. This will take place on Wednesday 14th October 2026. Please book your places for any of the above by contacting the school office. 

Mrs Chesterton is usually available at the end of the phone and is happy to chat with any prospective parents – please just phone the school office to make an appointment.
