Thank you for considering Preston Candover CE Primary as a potential school for your child! 

Our Current Pre Admission Number is 20. 

If you are interested in visiting the school and meeting members of the Leadership team prior to making your application, we invite you to contact the school office to book a date and time. We look forward to meeting you.

If your child is 4 or will turn 4 before 1 September 2025, they can start school in September 2026.
