information and documents about our school admissions.
The Admissions Policy has been formally adopted by the governing body who is the Admissions Authority and is responsible for determining the school’s admissions policy.
The admissions authority has set its Published Admission Number (PAN) at 30 pupils to be admitted to reception, in the school year beginning in the September following a child’s 4th birthday.
Policies and documents in relation to admissions can all be found on our policies page linked below.
How and when to apply
Applications must be made online on the schools admissions page on the Local Authority Common Application Form. All forms must be returned by the closing date set by Durham County Council.
In-Year applications
Applications are welcome for all year groups during the school year. If you would like to transfer your child from another school, please inform their current school that this is your intention and request a school transfer form. Please contact the school office to inform us that you would like to request a place for your child. Once the school transfer form has been received, parents will be notified if there is place available and transition details will be discussed.
