General admission information for September 2024/25

The admission round for entry to reception classes for the School Year 2024/25 opens on 25 September 2023 and closes on 14 January 2024.

When does a child start school?

• If your child was born between 1 September 2019 and 31 August 2020, they are due to start school in reception class in the school year starting September 2024 and are entitled to a full-time place.
• Parents are entitled to defer their child’s admission or request that their child attend on a part-time basis. By law, children must start statutory education full-time no later than the beginning of the term following their fifth birthday.

Important

• You must make an application for a reception class place, even if your child currently attends a nursery class at the same school. However, attendance at a nursery attached to a school, does not normally give you any priority for a place at that school.
