Admissions
Applying for a school place (for a child starting school)
Lymington Infant School is a two form entry infant school. This means we admit 60 children a year. While we are a Church School, in line with our values of Love, Courage and Respect, the admissions criteria aim to give equal access to all. Children usually start school in the Autumn term after their fourth birthday. We are happy to consider applications from outside our catchment area and in-year admissions.
We warmly invite parents to come and look around our lovely school. We are able to offer individual tours for prospective parents. If you would like to arrange a visit or ask for any advice, please do contact the school office on 01590 673355 or email us at admin@lymington-inf.hants.sch.uk

Starting a new school can feel very daunting for children at any age and these moments are big milestones in a child's life. They offer key opportunities to develop confidence, independence and a growing sense of identity.
How we talk to children during these times can make a real difference in how they adjust, settle in, feel secure and thrive.
Please see below a guide offering practical support for parents and carers. It contains helpful dos and don't and tips on building routines and emotional support to help children through times of change.
