Pupils may be admitted to our part-time Nursery (mornings) in the September following their third birthday. Rising three pupils may be admitted to our part time Nursery in the term following their third birthday. Pupils may be admitted to full time school (Reception Class) in the September of the year in which they attain the age of five. The LEA would like to inform parents that a Nursery placement at a school does not guarantee a full time Reception placement at the same school.

Prospective parents are more than welcome to visit the school prior to making an application for admission and register an interest. However this does not guarantee a place. Admission forms are sent out to parents of known prospective new entrance prior to entry. Parents are asked to complete these forms and return them to our School Administrator Mrs Furtek, before the deadline stated on the form.

The Local Education Authority and not the school are responsible for admissions within the county. The school adheres to the County’s Admissions policy and where numbers exceed the standard number the school’s local catchment defined by the Local Education Authority will be adhered to. Parents of statutory school age pupils have the right to appeal. The full policy is available on request or alternatively, please see “Starting School” booklet available at website.

Parents seeking admission for pupils with additional needs should contact the Local Authority admissions department. This will also be overseen by a member of the Senior Management Team and, where necessary, the ALNCo. Access arrangements are discussed at the point of application and managed through necessary procedures including risk assessment; the special educational needs register and appropriate agencies.
