The New Entrant Process at Rangiora Borough School - 1
At RBS we have 2 parts to our enrolment process.
- Firstly, a pre-enrolment which allows us to form a data-base of prospective pupils. The form and information for this is available at the school office by coming in or you can download the attached form. This form is completed and returned to school asap where details are transferred to the electronic database and the paper copy passed on to the enrolling staff member (Deputy Principal, Jo Pasley)
- Then, 5-6 weeks prior to a child starting school, parents will be phoned to make an appointment time to complete the official 'paper work' and to answer some questions about the child's growth and development and their current skills at that time. This is a snapshot to give to the teacher and an opportunity to get to know the child and their family. The child is welcome to attend the enrolment meeting to and will have a little activity to keep them engaged.
- At the time of enrolling, the child's teacher will be decided on and a visit to the room to look at the environment and say "hello" to the teacher may occur.
- Information regarding the visit process, uniforms, stationery and any questions will endeavour to be answered.
