Open Days and Tours

Below you will find details of local secondary and independent school open days over the coming months.  These are listed in alphabetical order.  If you have missed any of the open days or in cases where no public open day has been organised by the school we would suggest contacting the school directly to arrange a visit.

We do our best to ensure dates, timings and details are accurate.  However from time to time details change. To avoid unnecessary disappointment we recommend contacting the school or checking their website to double check the details and confirm attendance before setting off.

You can access all the information you need about the state school applications process on the Herts County Council website. Independent schools will run their own admissions processes and you should visit the school websites for further details.

Local Authority Nurseries (alphabetical order)

Unlike schools, applying for a Local Authority Nursery School place is not a centralised process run by Herts County Council.  You must apply directly to each school.  Not all of the nursery schools run dedicated open days.  Those who do will hold them during Winter/Spring term.  Others will be happy to arrange a visit for you.

Many schools are now offering up to 30 hours of childcare in some form and this will be free for those eligible for the Government's 30 hours free childcare scheme.  The format of the offering and number of places available varies by school and each has it's own eligibility criteria so you should discuss this option with each school.

Primary School Open Days (alphabetical order)

Open days vary from school to school.  Some will have formal events that you can book to attend and other you just contact to make your own arrangements for a tour.  Usually events take place in November and December. Junior schools usually take the majority of their intake from the linked Infant school and tend not to have dedicated open days and tours.  Parents of pupils from other schools are usually requested to contact the school to arrange a personal tour.
