Admission criteria

Ealing Council makes decisions for admissions to Fielding for pupils entering Reception to Year 6, in-line with all local maintained community Primary schools.  Prospective parents should contact Ealing Council to find out about admission arrangements and to enquire about waiting lists.

Ealing Council also publishes admissions criteria for all community Primary schools, including Fielding, each year.
