All applications received after 15 January 2026 will be treated as late and will only be processed after all on-time applications.

You are less likely to get a place at one of your preferred schools if you apply late.

Even if you already have a sibling at our school, parents will need to apply for a place if you have a child due to start Reception in September 2026.
