Applying for a Place in Reception in 2025

https://www.warwickshire.gov.uk/homepage/421/applying-for-a-primary-school-place

Prospective parents are always welcome to  talk to the Associate or Executive Head Teacher or to look around the school. Please contact the school office to make an appointment at a mutually convenient time.

You need to apply for September 2025 if your child:

was born between 1 September 2020 and 31 August 2021 (for a place in Reception).

If your child will be in Year 2 at an infant school in September 2024 (for a place in a junior school).

Please note: if your child is in Year 2 at a primary school (i.e. not an infant school) and you want to apply for a junior school place, you will need to apply instead via the In-Year process.

The applications process opens on 1 November 2024 and the deadline for applying for a Reception or Junior place is 15 January 2025. If you apply by this date, you will receive your child’s school offer on National Offer Day (16 April 2025).

Applications made after this date will be classified as late and not considered until after 16 April 2025, by which time many schools will be full and you are much less likely to be offered a place at your preferred school.
