New Parent Tours

We know how important it is for parents to visit schools in order to make an informed decision about where to send their children. Every year, we offer 'new parent tours' for families to visit our school. We ran a number of visits for September 2025 starters, which have now come to an end. We are looking forward to welcoming new families to visit our school next academic year.

We're also happy to arrange a tour for parents who are applying for an in-year place, offering you a chance to see our school in action. Please don't hesitate to contact the school office at office@grangeparkprimary.org to organise a visit.
