We are looking to find places for our children at Judith Kerr Primary for the 2020-2021 school year. Does anyone know how and when they assign any open spaces for the 2020-2021 school year? We are moving from the US so unfamiliar with how it all works and eager to secure a place as soon as we can, if possible. We have called and emailed the school but to no avail so trying other avenues. Thanks in advance for your help.

Maybe try through Southwark?

In the higher years(age 9-11) I reckon you're more likely to get a place. I think the classes are (more) full lower down, but good luck. Families do tend to move away fairly often, so places will/should come up.

I would suggest contacting Southwark. You may not get an immediate response as Secondary school allocations came out last night. [email protected]


If applying under the distance rather than lottery criteria, you would need to have moved into the area. If one child secures a place, then any siblings would go higher in the waiting list. Your likelihood of securing places for your children depends on where you move to and the school year. Places tend to come up more frequently over the school summer holiday than at other times. You always have the ability to appeal. You are less likely to win an appeal for years reception to year 2 due to the tighter rules on pupil numbers for infant classes. If you have special reasons for wanting this school over others, that helps an appeal eg your children are German speakers.

    • There will always be kids pushing the envelope as the saying goes, but having some boundaries should help most understand what they can and cannot do. I think dedicated, daily park wardens is exactly what is required...with a hotline to SNT teams on the beat. Is there no way money made from Gala or from Park parking fees can be diverted to provide that funding? I feel it would be a really good use of money. The principle aim being to maintain the park as a safe and relaxing environment for all.
    • Its almost the same as Grove Vale School , now Goose Green School.
    • They used to have dedicated park wardens, who I'm sure used to look after the parks and locked and opened the gates. Years ago I knew someone who was one. I thought they were based in that hut by the toilets. Are they not there any more? The community wardens are attached to the police rather than a specific park, aren't they?
    • Yes, sad how Rye Lane has taken a dive, interesting to see those pics CPR Dave. It's shocking how the section between Choumert Road and the Nag's Head in particular has lost its vibrancy, meanwhile the next section to the top of Peckham Rye Common has gentrified. Wonder why such a distinction in fortunes? Anyway the station square plans have fallen behind yet again, demolition won't now start this summer. The only "work" that will now take place this summer is surveying of the arcade, which they've had 10 years since planning permission to do. At least the replacement TSB branch has progressed but the Blenheim Grove corner building still looks unfinished, despite claims it "is now complete". https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/current-and-future-development/peckham-and-nunhead-2
