Tooting primaries in-year application

[Lpnc]

Hello all! I’m moving to the Tooting area—specifically Furzedown—and I’m planning to submit an in-year application for my daughter, who will be starting Year 1 in September.

I’ve visited both Furzedown and Penwortham and liked them both. I’ve also heard good things about Tooting Primary, although I haven’t had the chance to visit yet.

Does anyone have experience with any of these schools? They all seem to have available places. I’m leaning towards listing Penwortham as my first choice because of its reputation, but I also appreciate the smaller size of Furzedown.

There will be spaces due to falling rolls. Go and visit them & see which one you like the vibe of.

Sorry missed you visited some! Have you had a look at results?

I think a "fuller" school is better due to the funding model.

Hello 👋 did you move and where did you get a place? Hope your daughter has settled in. We’re doing the same this year, any tips welcome!
