Admissions Procedure  When can my child start school?
In Warwickshire children start Infant or Primary School the September after their fourth birthday. The law says all children must start school by the beginning of the term after their fifth birthday. If a child attends an Infant School, they will transfer to a Junior/Primary School in the September following their seventh birthday. When should I apply for a school place? The first year of school in Warwickshire is called Reception Year. You will need to apply for your child’s first school place in the September prior to your child starting school. For children starting school in September 2011 application forms are available from September 2010. All forms must be completed and returned to the Admissions Service by mid October 2010(date to be confirmed). All applications received by this date will be treated equally. However, returning your application after this date may affect the offer of a school place. You will be informed which school you have been allocated at the beginning of February 2011. Entry in September 2011: Places for Reception classes in Infant and Primary Schools will be posted on 1 February, 2011. The Headteacher will tell you about the admission arrangements and the opportunities to visit the school. Please click here for Open Evening Information. The criteria for entry will be found in the area booklets available from the Admissions Service. Tel: 01926 742037 or 742047 or email: admissions@warwickshire.gov.uk The booklets are also available on the admissions website. | ||
