Admissions

School Admission – Reception to Year 6

School admissions are managed by the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham for Reception to Year 6. If you would like your child to attend our school, you will need to either visit a One Stop Shop (our nearest one is at Dagenham Heathway) or download & complete a form from the Borough website. The link to the Borough website is provided below.

As part of your child’s induction to starting at Roding Primary School, we are able to give tours of our school.  This gives you the opportunity to ask any questions, meet our wonderful staff and children and to have a look around our school grounds. Please speak to our Family Liaison Practitioners to book an appointment.

We have created a virtual tour (created by the children of the school) to give you an idea of the school facilities and atmosphere.  You can view the video below.
