Admissions and Virtual Tour

We welcome parents and carers to come and visit our school before applying for a place.  To help parents, we have created a virtual school tour.  This will give you a feel of St Matthew’s and show the opportunities we offer all our children.

If you have a child due to start school in September 2025, we would enjoy showing you around our school.

To book a time for a school tour, please call the school office: 01892 52809

We are a two form entry school, with up to 60 children in each year. We welcome enquiries from parents looking for a place in Reception and  further up the school. We work to ensure that our children settle quickly into school, and enjoy their learning.

If you are thinking of applying for a place at St Matthew’s CE Primary for your child, feel free to contact the school office on 01892 528098 or office@st-matthews.kent.sch.uk for more information.

If you want your child to join St Matthew’s CE Primary School you will need to apply for a place. Please refer to our Admissions Policy or email KCC for additional guidance. Please feel free to email primaryadmissions@kent.gov.uk.
