School Tours

Visits to the school for prospective Year 7 students and their parents are encouraged through both our summer term Year 5/6 open evening and our bookable visit system, details of which are available below.

We ask that all parents applying for an in-year place for Year 7 - 11 after the normal age of transfer has occoured please contact admissions@poolehigh.poole.sch.uk in the first instance for further information.

Year 6 Autumn Tours

We run arranged tours of the school during the school day for a period of time in September to support prospective Year 6 parents considering their schools for the normal age of transfer. You can book and manage your tours with time slots available as published through our online booking system.

We ask that any tour consists of one child with one adult to help us manage the number of people on our site during the school day. If you wish to make a special request outside this arrangement, please contact  admissions@poolehigh.poole.sch.uk after booking your time.

Sixth Form

If you are considering an application to our sixth form and wish for a tour, we ask you to contact our sixth form team at sixthform@poolehigh.poole.sch.uk
