Was your child born between 1 September 2020 and 31 August 2021?
Will they have reached the age of 4 by August 31st, 2025?
If so, your child will have the opportunity to start in a Reception class in September 2025.
If you are applying for Reception in September 2025, please note that the closing date for receipt of applications was 18/11/24 and applications received after the closing date will be considered as late.
This means that your child may have less opportunity to be allocated to your preferred school.
