Parents have until the end of the month to apply for their child's place at an "exciting" new free school.

Harperbury Free School, which will open in Radlett this September is accepting applications for its first cohort of students from pupils currently in Year Six and living in Borehamwood, Shenley, Radlett, St Albans and Bricket Wood.

The headteacher, Martin Blain, will be meeting parents at local primary schools throughout the month to tell them what it might be like to send their children to the new school, update them on progress and answer any questions. 

The first meetings will be at Fair Field School in Radlett next Tuesday and Newberries School in Radlett next Wednesday, and will begin at 6pm.

Parents at other primary schools who would like to arrange for Mr Blain to visit their school should contact office@harperbury.org.uk.
