At Ryarsh, we know how important it is to make sure that you choose the best school possible for your child. The current climate means that certain restrictions are in place that do not allow us to offer what we ordinarily would do.
However, we understand the importance of providing parents with as much information as possible about our school so you can make an informed decision about your child’s schooling. If you are interested in joining our Ryarsh family, here are the details of our new entrants programme for children wishing to join our school in September 2022:

Virtual Tour
At Ryarsh, keeping our children and community safe is our number one priority. As a result, we are not able to offer a tour inside our school whilst the children are in the building. We take great pride in our school and love showing any visitors around so it is with a very heavy heart that we are not currently in the position to offer the opportunity to see the lessons in action.
We hope that the virtual tour below helps to provide you with an insight into our wonderful school.
School Tours
We are excited to announce that we are able to offer the opportunity to tour our school with Mr Childs (Headteacher) and Mrs Harris (Deputy Headteacher & SENDCo) during specific weekend dates. During this tour, you will be able to visit each learning space, as well as our outdoor environment, and discuss what we can offer your child. Each tour will have a total capacity of 40 adults. As an additional safety measure, we would like to each each visitor to take a lateral flow test before attending and also wear a face mask when on site (unless exempt).
The site visits can be offered on the following dates:
| Saturday 23rd October | 2:00pm – 3:00pm
3:15pm – 4:15pm |
| Saturday 13th November | 2:00pm – 3:00pm
3:15pm – 4:15pm |
If you would like to book a visit during one of these times, please contact the school office on 01732 870 600.
Headteacher Presentation
We will also be hosting a headteacher presentation, with Mr Childs, in our school hall. After the presentation, there will also be the opportunity for you to talk to a selection of our year 6 children. Each presentation will have a total capacity of 30 visitors (including children). As an additional safety measure, we would like to each each visitor to take a lateral flow test before attending and also wear a face mask when on site (unless exempt).
Please feel free to contact us on 01732 870 600 to book in one of the following dates:
| Wednesday 13th October | 9:10am – 9:50am |

Children with Special Educational Needs
If you have a child with an Education Health Care Plan or you are currently going through the process, please contact our SENCo, Amanda Harris, on amanda.harris@ryarsh.kent.sch.uk. We will be able to meet with you individually to discuss the needs of your child and how we can best meet them.
