We are an inclusive school that welcomes children from all backgrounds and all abilities. The level of ability or any special educational need that a child may have plays no part in the admissions policy of the school. The only restriction we place on entry is that of number.

Oak Lodge Primary School is part of the Compass Academy Trust. The Trust adheres to the admissions arrangements set out by Bromley Local Authority who manage the admissions process for all applications to Oak Lodge in accordance with the DfE Schools Admission Code.  This includes applications for our annual ninety Reception Year places and also any 'in year' vacancies that occasionally arise.

Applications cannot be made directly to the school.  Should you wish your child to be considered for any vacancy, it is essential that you have completed an in-year application form and submitted it to Bromley's Admissions Team who process all applications for families who are Bromley residents.  Information on the admissions procedure can be found by clicking the following link or by browsing the Bromley Local Authority website at www.bromley.gov.uk. If you live outside of Bromley you must apply through your own Local Authority.
