The LA deadline for school admissions applications was Friday 30th October 2009 but it is still worth applying even if this deadline has passed. Please inform your child’s present school of your decision. The LA offered definite school places to parents around 1st March 2010 based on the criteria in the LA Admissions booklet. From September 2010 onwards the LA will deal directly with all admissions to the school, including mid-year admissions.

In September 2009 all children in our entry year, Year 5, including those living outside our area whose parents put us first choice were offered a place at the school. However in September 2010 the LA Admissions Department limited our numbers to 130 and some families were refused a place subject to the outcome of admission appeals.
