Applying for a Primary School Place

(Reception September 2027)

If you have a child due to start school in September 2027 (whose date of birth falls between 1 September 2022 and 31 August 2023), the application process for a primary school place opens in November 2026 and closes on Friday 15 January 2027.

Choosing a school for your child is one of the biggest decisions you will make for them, and we know you will be desperate to choose the right one. We are here to help you every step of the way and to answer your questions. We would love to welcome you on a tour of the school and show you all our lovely school has to offer your child.

Please contact Mrs N Poppe at the office (01795 663012 or email rosestreet.office@swfed.co.uk) if you have any questions about this.

We still have a few places in our Nursery this September. Applications for a Nursery place are also made via the school office. The child is placed on a waiting list and parents are contacted prior to being offered a place for September, January or April admissions, whichever is appropriate.

We also still have a few places in Reception. Please contact us to find out how to apply for these.
