Co-ordinated admission scheme for Reception places

Lancashire has a co-ordinated admissions scheme which applies to families seeking school places for September 2024.

The scheme makes applying for a primary school place more transparent for all parties involved in the admission process. As co-ordination is a legal requirement, all Lancashire schools are included within the arrangements.

The aim of the co-ordinated scheme is to provide all parents with an offer of a single school place on the same day.  You can read more about Lancashire's co-ordinated scheme by clicking on the following link: https://www.lancashire.gov.uk/council/strategies-policies-plans/children-education-and-families/school-admissions/determined-2024-25-admission-arrangements/determined-primary-school-admission-arrangements-2024-25/


Other year group admissions

For admission to any other year group, please contact Ms Mulligan on 01695 724539 who can advise on available places and arrange for you to visit school.  If you decide that our school is suitable for you, you should complete the admissions application through Lancashire County Council.
