More information on Admissions
If you live in Warwickshire and your child is due to start school or transfer to primary/secondary school in September 2024, it is now possible for you to apply online at www.warwickshire.gov.uk/admissions. For further information please contact the School Admissions Department on 01926 414143.
As our school is a community school, the school determines the admission arrangements in agreement with the Warwickshire County Council. The Warwickshire County Council is therefore the ‘Admissions Authority’ for our school. The regulations for entry to each school, where the Admissions Authority is the Warwickshire County Council, are published each year by the Warwickshire County Council. Parents can receive a copy of these regulations directly from the Warwickshire County Council.
The Warwickshire County Council publishes a composite admissions prospectus each year, which gives information about how parents can apply for a place in the school of their choice. Parents have a right to express a preference for the school of their choice and they should do so on the application form. Expressing a preference does not, in itself, guarantee a place at this school.
Application forms can be obtained from the Education Department of the Warwickshire County Council and should be completed by the date stipulated on the forms. The Warwickshire County Council notifies parents about the school place as soon as all the applications have been considered.
In this area, children enter school in the academic year they become five. There is one admissions date per year, early in September (i.e. at the start of the school year).
