Applying for a place at St Helen's Church of England Primary School

If you are interested in sending your child to our school we highly recommend that you visit us and look around.

Please phone the school office on 01643 220246 to make an appointment. In the current COVID-19 situation  viewings of the school will have to take place after the children have gone home. 

Applications have to be made direct to Medway Council. Please click on this link for further information about this:

Application forms or on line applications are usually available from the beginning of September for entry for the following September e.g. if your child is due to start school next September, forms will be available from previous September/October. Applications have to be submitted by January and you will be informed by the council if your application has been successful usually by the end of March.

If you are a regular church attender you may want to complete a Supplementary Information Form (SIF) to indicate that you are choosing us because you wish your child to attend a church school; the SIF’s are available from the school office. The SIF has to be signed by the vicar or priest at your church to confirm your regular attendance. The SIF will only be used if we are over- subscribed.  In the event of over subscription we follow Medway requirements.
