Next Steps

Shortly after National Offer Day, we will contact families who have accepted a place at Blackhorse Primary School to provide details about our induction process, which begins in June. This will include opportunities for you and your child to visit the school, meet the staff, and learn more about what to expect in September. If you were unable to visit the school before you applied, and would like the opportunity to do so, please ring the school office and we'd be happy to arrange this. 

We look forward to embarking on this exciting journey with you and your child.
