Admission Arrangements

As a Voluntary Aided School, the Governing Body is the Admissions Authority and is responsible for taking decisions on applications for admissions. The co-ordination of admissions arrangements is undertaken by the Local Authority.

Parents must complete a Local Authority Preference Form or apply online via the website http://www.knowsley.gov.uk/schooladmissions.

Nursery Applications

To apply for a Nursery place, please complete a Nursery Admission Application Pack (Supplementary Faith Form inc) and return it to school via post, email or through the school office, attaching a copy of your child’s birth certificate, baptism certificate and proof of address.
