    Please refer to the following documents for admissions policy information.

    Parents will be notified of the outcome of their application and details about their right to appeal. We will aim to notify parents of the outcome of their application in writing within 10 school days. 

    How do I apply for an in-year transfer?

    An in-year admission is when a child needs an immediate school place during the school year.

    There are two main reasons for this. You might be moving house or unhappy with your child’s current school.

    To make an application, you may do so online via the Hampshire County Council website or contact the school for a paper copy, applications will then be processed by County admissions.  

    Once received by the school, you will be notified in writing of the outcome and either be offered a place if there is one available or placed on a waiting list.
