Our catchment area has two linked Junior Schools, South Farnborough Juniors and St. Peters Junior Schools and the number currently on the roll is just over 1,000. We consistently admit children from outside our catchment area, including other areas of Rushmoor Borough, particularly Aldershot. This provides the school with a strong connection the military and to service families.
