School admissions is often a very anxious time for parents. To help you identify whether Vaughan Primary school is the right choice for you and your child, our prospectus is available here.  Together with the video, the prospectus will give you an insight into what life is like as a member of the Vaughan Primary school community.

Whilst the Local Authority School Admissions office process applications for places at our school, Mr Byford (the Admissions Officer) is available to discuss how this process works and answer any questions you may have about Vaughan Primary School.  He can be contacted through the School Office by writing to admissions@vaughan.harrow.sch.uk.
