Admissions
Welcome to Abercerdin Primary School!
We are delighted to welcome children aged 5 to 11 years on a full-time basis, as well as offering part-time nursery education for pupils from the age of three. Our nurturing and inclusive environment ensures that every child feels valued, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential.
Admissions & Nursery Provision
Children joining our Reception class start in September following their fourth birthday, in line with Bridgend County Borough Council’s admissions policy. Abercerdin Primary School also has a dedicated Nursery unit offering:
- Pre-Nursery: Full-time education from the term after a child turns three.
- Nursery Year: Continued full-time education in the year of their fourth birthday.
As the local authority manages all admissions, applications should be submitted to Bridgend County Borough Council, which allocates places based on the criteria set out in its "Admission to Schools" publication. In cases where applications exceed available places, priority will be determined according to the Council’s oversubscription criteria.
Visit Our School
We warmly invite prospective parents and children to visit us at any time during the year. We believe that a strong home-school partnership is key to every child's success, and we encourage open communication and parental involvement throughout their educational journey.
To help families settle in, we will be hosting a special Open Day for Nursery children and their parents. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet our dedicated staff, explore our facilities, and connect with other families. Please contact the school for details on this event.
At Abercerdin Primary School, we are committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and stimulating learning environment where every child can thrive. We look forward to welcoming you into our school community and supporting your child on their exciting educational journey.
