Presentations and Tours for prospective parents for Nursery and Reception start in 2021
Prospective Parents Meetings will be held at 10am on Monday 9th November '20 and Wednesday 18th November '20. This will involve a presentation for approximately 40 minutes led by the headteacher and senior leaders and will be all about different aspects of the school. It will also cover the admissions process. There will also be opportunities to tour the school during a normal school day. Parents and carers can sign up for tours in the autumn '20 term either over the phone or when attending a presentation. Dates for the tours vary between 9:15am to 10:45am in 30 minute slots. Dates for tours are Wednesday 11th November '20, Friday 20th November '20 and Tuesday 8th November '20.
Key Information when applying: Completion of a supplementary information form
A supplementary information form (SIF) must be completed in addition to your online application if:
- the child for whom a place is sought lives in the parishes served by St Mark’s Church on Bathurst Gardens and St Martin’s Church on Mortimer Road (a map of the parishes and list of roads which fall within the boundaries are available from the School office or at the bottom of this page); and
- that child's family regularly attend St Mark’s, St Martin’s or a place of worship of another Christian denomination or other world faith (regular attendance means attendance at a weekly service on at least 26 occasions in each of the past two years).
In the event that the School is over-subscribed, this information will help the Governors decide how the application should be considered under criterion D in the School’s admission arrangements (available from the School website or office).
If you wish regular attendance at a church or other place or worship to be taken into account under criterion D, please ensure that your completed SIF is returned to the School by the deadline for online applications (15 January 2020). Failure to do so may result in your application to the school being unsuccessful.
You do not need to complete a SIF if you do not want a religious reference to be taken into account.

In-year admissions 2019/20Princess Frederica is proud to be a popular school but this does mean that we receive more applications than we have places in Reception and are unfortunately not able to offer every child a place at the start of the school year.
We encourage parents to join our waiting list as places may become available later on in the year, for example when parents' circumstances change. For the same reason, a limited number of places may also become available in later school years. Applications for such places are referred to as 'in year' applications and should be made direct to the school, in the first instance. If you have an enquiry about 'in year' applications or about your child joining the waiting list for a place at Princess Frederica, please contact the school office in person, by email admin@princessfrederica.brent.sch.uk or on 020 8964 5372. A copy of the in-year admissions application can be found below.
Ask us...If you have a question about the admissions process or would like to confirm receipt of your application, please e-mail the school office on admin@princessfrederica.com
