Tours for Prospective Parents
During the autumn term we arrange a series of tours for parents of children planning to join the school the following September. Prospective parents are normally welcome to arrange a tour at other times in the year however, at the present time, please view the virtual tours, links can be found below.
Please contact the office on 0117 903 0251 if you would like to know more about the current availability of places in each year group. There is a good chance we will be able to offer places to your children at our Ofsted Outstanding school.

Will I get in?
Clifton and North Bristol schools are popular. We have no catchment area and children come to our school from across Bristol. If you are moving to the area and looking for September or mid-year places, please come and talk to us. We are very used to accepting children throughout the academic year and are experts at quickly settling children into life at St John’s, so they soon feel part of the school family.
Visiting the school
We recommend parents / carers visit the school before applying for a place: we think you’ll like it as much as we do, but every school has its own distinct character, and it is important you feel confident in what we can offer your child.
