Applications to start our school for the first time, for the start of Reception, should be made direct to the Local Authority in which you live by the deadline for applications. Late applications will be considered after those submitted by the deadline, often when there are no places available, so it is important that you apply on time. If you live in the East Riding of Yorkshire Council area, then you can find more information about ‘normal’ admissions processes, deadlines, details of the appeal process and other information at www.eastriding.gov.uk/apply-for-a-school-place. If you live outside the East Riding, you should apply to your ‘home’ Local Authority and not East Riding of Yorkshire Council.
Applications for ‘in-year’ school places are made through the local authority’s co-ordinated admissions scheme for in-year applications, and should be made direct to the Local Authority no earlier than one term before the place is required, and it is recommended that you apply no later than a period of twenty school days, that is four weeks in term time, before you wish for the place to be available for your child.
Parents who are considering sending their child to our school are always very welcome to visit the school and see the work that we do. Appointments should be made by telephoning or emailing the school office.
Please see our admissions policy for further information.

Appeals
Appeals for ‘in-year’ school admission requests are normally held within 30 school days of the date your appeal is received. You will be notified of the date of your appeal no later than ten school days before the appeal is due to take place.
Appeals for entry into Reception or Year 7 to start primary or secondary school for the first time – what are called ‘normal’ admission requests – are usually held in the summer term after parents / carers have been notified of the refusal of a school place.
For applications to start a primary school for the first time in September 2027, appeal forms should be submitted by the parent / carers by 21 May 2027 and appeals are planned to be held from May-July 2027.
