If your child is under 3 years old and you would like to have a place in our School Nursery please contact the School Office to collect a form to complete. There is policy for admissions to Nursery. (See below) You will need to bring the completed form back to the School office and will also need to provide the original birth certificate and proof of Baptism. You will also be asked for proof of residency. This proof needs to be in the form of a recent utility bill.  If you are allocated a place in Nursery you will be notified usually in March for a September start.

A Nursery place DOES NOT guarantee  your child a place in Reception.

If you wish your child to start in Reception you will receive a form from Sefton Admissions with a Unique number and you MUST apply online for a September start.

You will again be asked to provide the original birth certificate and proof of Baptism or a Supplementary Faith form. You will also be asked for proof of residency, again this must be a recent utility bill. Sefton Admissions team will inform you if you have received a place in April.

If you want your child to be admitted to any other year group you must contact InYear Fair Access School Admissions team on 0151 934 3590 and you will be informed if there is a place available.  www.sefton.gov.uk/inyearadmissions
