Admission to Reception Class

2026 Open Evening - Tuesday 4th November 4pm

All applications for Reception Class are co-ordinated by the Local Authority.

All Liverpool schools follow the co-ordinated admission arrangements and equal preference scheme to allocate places in primary schools

The purpose of co-ordinated admission arrangements is to ensure parents receive a single offer of a school place for their child on the same day.

Therefore all applications must be made online via The Local Authority website if you have difficulties please telephone Admissions section on 0151 233 3006. Unfortunately the school is unable to give you a paper application form. Please be aware the closing date for September admittance is in January.

Children are admitted to the Reception Class in the September of the year in which they have their 5th Birthday. Our published admission number is 30. All applications must be made via Liverpool City Council. Please note the school cannot admit a child directly, all allocations must come via the Local Authority.

If you require any further advice about admission procedures, you should contact Liverpool Direct Limited on 233 3006 or call into a One Stop Shop or contact the school, or see the Primary School Booklet below.

Admission into Enhanced Resource Provision

All children in our Enhanced Resource Provsion must have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP.) Our Enhanced Resource Provision (ERP) is for children with:

Medical Needs
Physical Needs
Severe Learning Difficulties

We currently offer 60 places within our ERP and we are heavily over subscribed. The Local Authority must send your child's EHCP to us to read to ensure we can meet your child's needs. Our headteacher and Inclusion Manager read every EHCP and decide whether our ERP is the correct setting for your child. If we deem it suitable, the Local Authory may allocate a place.
