The Head Teacher is happy to see any parent considering sending their child to the school, subject to a telephone call to arrange a mutually convenient time. Admissions of a child to County and Controlled Primary Schools is the responsibility of the Education Authority (Lancahire County Council). Most Primary Schools in Lancashire are able to accept children at the school their parent prefers, but where this is not possible, then preference will be given to: 

1. A looked after child.
2. A brother or sister of a child already attending the school.
3. A child for whom the Authority accepts that there are strong medical, social or welfare reasons for admission.

Under the current guidelines parents will be informed as soon as possible after 16th April whether it will be possible to comply with their stated preference. If a place is not offered at a school which the parents prefer, they will be provided with detailed information about the steps which can be taken to appeal against this decision. After a place has been formally offered and accepted, you will be invited to school to meet our Reception staff and arrange a pre-school visit for your child. 

Children who are seeking admission to school in all other year groups should contact the school either by phone or in person to determine if there are places available, criteria will be applied. 

Our maximum admission number is 30. If a year group is full then parents may submit an appeal and should contact the Area School's Office for details.
