Children Starting School September 2023

Children born between 1 September 2018 and 31 August 2019 can start school in Reception Year in September 2023.

The application window for Reception 2023 has now closed, however you can still make a late application. You will need to make a paper application to be received by North Somerset Council School Admissions by 13 May 2023 - please download an application form or contact the school office if you need assistance with obtaining an application form. 

All applications are processed by North Somerset Council School Admissions. Applications can be returned to the council, in person, by post or electronically. 

Our admission arrangements have a supplementary information form (SIF) to be completed and submitted with your application for school (this includes online and paper applications). The SIF form should be completed and sent directly to the school.

Further information can be found in the Parents' Guide to Starting School, or you can contact School Admissions by email admissions@n-somerset.gov.uk  or telephone 01275 884 078. 

It's really important to apply by the relevant closing date or you may not be considered in the first round of applications. If you miss the deadline, you can still apply. Late applications will be processed later in the year but may be less likely to get your preferred school.
