Open Evenings
We are not sure what transition for September ’21 starters will look like, but do have our Open Evenings planned for
- Monday 21st September 2020 – To be held at Rushey Mead Academy
- Tuesday 29th September 2020 – To be held at Castle Mead Academy
- We will offer virtual events on Zoom too – Check our website for further details.
If, due to ongoing social distancing restrictions, we are unable to open our doors fully, we shall create some virtual briefings, faculty information and zoom meetings to support parents when choosing which school to send their child to.
To apply for a place at Brook Mead for children starting Year 7 in August 2021 must apply directly to the school in the first year of opening and then directly to Leicester City Council admissions in subsequent years. (Please see our admissions page).
Applications should be submitted by the 31st October. In early March you will be notified if you have a place with us.
Once you have secured a place with Orchard Mead we will write to you with details of your child’s transition plan.
