Prospective Parents

At Marnel Junior School, we understand that choosing the right school for your child is a significant decision—whether they are moving on from the Infant School or joining us from elsewhere. We are here to support you throughout the process, offering clear information, a warm welcome, and opportunities to see our school in action.

We know that families are looking for a school where their child will be happy, make strong progress, and feel part of a supportive community. Our aim is to give you a genuine sense of what life at Marnel Junior School is like—through visits, conversations with staff, and seeing our pupils engaged in learning—so you can make an informed choice with confidence.

We are proud of our inclusive ethos, our high expectations, and the positive relationships that underpin everything we do, helping every child to feel secure, valued, and ready to succeed.

If you would like your child to attend our school, please see our admissions arrangements and then apply via the Hampshire County Council link below.
