Reception Admissions

Thank you for your interest in Belleville Wix Academy. We are a successful, vibrant and inclusive primary school which shares a unique bi-cultural community with École de Wix. We have a class taught in English and a bilingual class taught in English and French in each year group from Reception to Year 6 and a Nursery taught in English.

We were judged Ofsted 'Good' in October with an 'Outstanding' Early Years provision. Children are happy and successful here, and achieve well beyond the national average. We are part of the Quality First Education Trust, which also includes Belleville in the local area, and together we share a relentless drive for improvement, excellence and equality.

When to apply

Children start Reception in the academic year (September to August) that they have their 5th birthday. You should apply for a Reception place by mid-January of the year that your child starts Reception in September.

Applications for places for September entry are now open through Wandsworth Council and close on Monday 15 January. Parents and carers will be notified of their child's primary school place by Wandsworth Council on National Offer Day which is Tuesday 16 April.

How to apply

You should apply for your primary school place to the borough in which you live, even if you are applying for schools that are not in that borough.

All Reception Admissions are managed by Wandsworth Borough Council on our behalf. Please visit the Wandsworth website for more detailed information and to make an application. You can also contact them by email at admissions@wandsworth.gov.uk or by telephone on 020 8871 7316.

Belleville Wix Academy is very close to the borough boundary with Lambeth. If you live in Lambeth and would like to attend our school, you will need to apply for a place through the Lambeth Council website or you can email them at schooladmissions@lambeth.gov.uk

What if I missed the deadline for Reception?

If you missed the deadline for September and are interested in a place at BWA, you can put in an application after the deadline and be added to the waiting list. The waiting list is kept in order of the Admissions Criteria so you may not automatically be at the bottom. As places become available, we will contact you to offer you a place.
