Admissions

Thank you for considering joining our friendly, vibrant school. What’s your next step?

This page explains how to apply for a place at our school whether at nursery, reception or if you wish to join later on an in-year transfer. It’s a good idea to arrange a tour of the school so you can meet our friendly staff and get a good feel for the place! Ask us what we have to offer and tell us a little bit about your family and what’s important to you.

If your child isn’t old enough to start school yet, you can still register an interest at the school by contacting the school office.

Applications for a place in our school from reception are handled by Kirklees Council through their school admissions process.

Children start reception year at primary school from the September after their fourth birthday, although by law children don't have to start school until the beginning of the term after their fifth birthday.

If our school is over subscribed, our Admissions Policy (see below) will be used to decide which children are admitted. Our policy is determined by the Together Learning Trust.
