Dear Parent / Carer,

If you are trying to secure a place for your child in the current reception classes or other in other year groups, please call the school on 0121 747 2851 and ask for Mrs Smith or Miss O'Reilly. Alternatively email admin2618@welearn365 and mark your request as URGENT - Admissions.
Although there is usually a waiting list for places, we do currently have spaces in Reception. We do also occasionally, have a few spaces in some year groups. We will be able to tell you of we have spaces and how to formally contact admissions.

FAQs
Apply for school places ONLINE with the Local Authority where you live now.
Places are offered by the local authority based on a number of criteria, but most of all how close you live to the school.
Places are highly sought after so, if you live in, or can move to the village, you have a much better chance of success.
Please be sure to contact admissions about any difficulties, well before the cut off date.
The welcome video and website tells you much of what you need to know, but if you have any questions, please get in touch .
