Fairfield School in Backwell is opening its doors on Friday 13 and Saturday 14 March when prospective parents can take a tour of the facilities and meet staff and current pupils.

Activities will be running throughout the open mornings, with Friday’s session open from 9.30am-11.30am and Saturday’s session from 10am-12 noon.

Parents of children aged 2-11 are welcome as well as the children themselves. There are spaces available throughout the school, although spaces for September in some year groups are limited.

Catering for pupils aged 2-11 years the independent co-educational school in Backwell includes an integrated nursery department which takes children aged 2-4 years, and which parents will also be able to view.

The open mornings will be followed on Friday 27 March with entrance assessments for the older children.

Fairfield School headmistress Lesley Barton said: “Our open mornings are the perfect opportunity for parents and children to come and have a look around the facilities and grounds we have at Fairfield. They can meet with teachers and speak to some current pupils about their experiences of our school.

“Due to popular demand we have added a Saturday session for those parents unable to visit of Friday. We are also happy to welcome prospective parents at any time for an individual tour of the school.

“We have spaces available throughout the school and our nursery provision for children aged 2-4 will be of particular interest to new parents.

“At Fairfield we are proud to provide very high-quality education at a very competitive and affordable price. We believe that investing in children’s primary education will launch them into a successful future and lay the strongest foundations for the rest of their lives.

“Fairfield has been providing outstanding education for boys and girls since 1935. We are committed to offering children the best environment in which to learn, as well as a wide-ranging activity programme.

“It’s very difficult to get a real feel for a school’s atmosphere and environment by reading a prospectus so we’d really encourage parents to come along to the Open Mornings in order to gain an understanding of our ethos and values.”

Fairfield School is an independent co-educational school for children aged 2 to 11. Class sizes are limited to around 20 at Fairfield, with many much smaller, and there is a very wide range of clubs and activities, sport, music and drama to excite the interest of pupils.

Fairfield is historically a PNEU School, which means it is affiliated to the Parents’ National Education Union. There are PNEU schools throughout the UK and the world.
