Fair Field Junior School is a non-selective academy, open to children of all abilities. The school has a two-form entry and admits 60 pupils per year into Year 3.  Our children are our best ambassadors and, if you are considering Fair Field for Year 3, please call the school office to arrange a tour.  We also welcome families who are considering Reception at St John's and who would like to see where the children move on to once they are in the juniors. 

Your visit will include a tour from current pupils and an opportunity to meet with the Head of School or another member of the Senior Leadership Team.
