Our Open Evening runs from 4pm to 7.30pm, with the Headteacher’s presentations taking place at 4.15pm, 5.15pm and 6.15pm. If you would like to attend our Open Evening please register using the link below by Wednesday, 25 September. You should then receive a confirmation email and further information about the event. Kindly note that our Open Evening is always a busy event; as parking is limited, we advise families to walk to the school or use public transport, if possible. Our Open Evening is undoubtedly the best way in which to find out more about the opportunities that Springfield has to offer. However, there are also a number of short films about the school available on the homepage of our website which you can enjoy watching with your child; we suggest that you watch these prior to your visit. We hope these will give you an insight into the extremely positive learning environment that we have at Springfield and encourage you to make Springfield your first choice. (Kindly note that the impressive refurbishment of our Science Block is now complete!) Admissions Service
Admission to the school is managed by the Admissions Service of Portsmouth City Council, which is required to take part in a cross-border co-ordinated scheme for main round admissions. This allows parents to complete one application form from their home local authority, regardless of the school and the area in which they wish to apply for a place. This is known as a ‘Common Application Form’. Please contact the Admissions Service directly for information regarding applying for a place at Springfield.
