Reach Academy Feltham is an all-through school with one entry point for admission which is Reception. 

We also have a nursery on site which has places for 2-4 year olds. Some of those children, those eligible for the Early Years Pupil Premium and attending our nursery, will get priority for admission to Reach Academy Feltham Reception class. All places are allocated in line with our admissions policy which can be found here. 

Admission to Reception 2026

We are holding a number of Open Events for children who will be starting school in September 2026 at 9am or 1pm on 4th or 11th November 2025. We are lucky to be able to welcome applications to Reach Academy Feltham, or our sister school, Reach Academy Hanworth Park which is next door. If you would like to come to a Reach School, please put down one school as first and our other school for second choice.

For children starting in Reception, you will hear whether your child has been offered a place with us in April 2026 through Hounslow Council. You have until 30th April to accept the school you are allocated.

Reception Open Events November 2025

If you wish to apply for your child join the school as an in-year admission please contact Hounslow Council. Children may be admitted at any time during the school year to classes where there are vacancies. If any vacancies occur we will apply the criteria in our admissions policy to the waiting list.

We do not have a Year 7 entry point as we are an all-through school and our primary children automatically move into Year 7. If you are applying for your child to join the next Year 7 cohort you will need to apply via Hounslow Council. Waiting lists for the next September Year 7 entry open in the preceding July. If there are any vacancies in Reach Academy for Year 7 2024 entry we will be applying our oversubscription criteria to this list within the summer term.

We have opened a new school in September 2024 adjacent to Reach Academy Feltham and therefore, for the first time in 5 years families will be able to gain admission to Year 7 by applying to join Reach Academy Hanworth Park. Click here to find out more about the admissions process.

We want to educate the whole community and be a truly non-selective school. 

In order to ensure a diverse intake that reflects the balance of our community, we define one allocate a proportion of places (16 out of the 60 places) to pupils eligible for the pupil premium at the closing date of applications. 16 places is the average number of places in schools within a 2 mile radius of Reach Academy Feltham.
