School Admissions
Reception and Junior School Places for September 2025
You must apply online for a Reception / Junior school place in September 2024, between 1st September 2024 and 15th January 2025.
If you apply after this date it can severely reduce your chances of obtaining a place at your preferred school. You need to apply using this link: https://www.kirklees.gov.uk/beta/admissions/apply-primary-school-place.aspx
Our school admissions are controlled by Kirklees Local Authority.
We can have 90 children in each of our Reception and Key Stage One (Year 1 and Year 2) year groups. We also have a 2 Year Old Provision and Nursery running on the school site.
If you would like your child to attend our school, please see full details of admission arrangements below. Please do not hesitate to contact the school, if you would like to arrange a visit to see our school in person before completing your application form. You will be most welcome.

In – Year Admissions
An in-year admission is when a child already attends a school but wants to transfer to another school outside of the usual transfer time, for example because the child is moving to a new address. These transfers take place during the school year, which is why they are called in-year admissions.
There are two different types of in-year admission:
- Parents or carers who are moving/have moved house and wish to move to a school closer to their new home
- Parents or carers who are not moving house, or whose change of address is not a significant one (a significant house move is defined as over 2 miles for Key Stage 1 or 3 miles for Key Stage 2 and above), but would like their child to change school
