Admissions

Home Admissions

Full details regarding school admissions are available in the Admissions Handbook – this is available on the Northumberland County Council Website.

Generally, children are admitted into school at the beginning of the Autumn Term (September) following their fourth birthday.

All parents, regardless of whether they reside inside or outside of the schools catchment area, must complete a school preference application form. This can be done online through the admissions portal.

The Northumberland portal opens 1st November and requests all submissions by 15th January.

If your child is already at the school nursery a letter will be sent to your home address giving details of how to log onto the portal.  If you are resident in Northumberland but do not have a nursery place you can still apply through the portal by following the instructions on the Northumberland County Council website.

If you live outside Northumberland you must apply for a place through your own authority admissions process.

Nursery Admissions

It is recommended that parents who wish to apply for a nursery place for their child should visit the Head Teacher and complete an application form as soon as possible.

Should there be a shortage of places, priority will be given to those parents living within the catchment area of the school.

A nursery session lasts for 3 hours and offers places for up to 30 hours per week.  It would be helpful to us if children accepted into Nursery could attend their allocated sessions on a regular basis.

The criteria for nursery admissions can be found in the Early Years Brochure, here.
