The closing date for applications for Reception is fast approaching on Saturday 15 January 2022.

We would therefore be grateful to  parents of children , (those born between 1 September 2017 and 31 August 2018) that, if you have not already done so, you need to make application to the local authority for a school place before midnight on Saturday 15 January 2022.  We would strongly advise parents not to leave it until the last moment.  If they encounter any difficulties, neither schools nor the Admissions Team will be available outside office hours (in other words after close of business on Friday).  If parents do not make application by this closing date, their application would be treated as late and that could disadvantage their child when being considered for a place at their preferred school(s).

Paper application forms are not available.  Application must be made online at www.shropshire.gov.uk/schooladmissions

Anyone struggling to apply online is advised, well in advance of Friday, to contact Shropshire Council customer services or to attend their nearest Customer Service Point available here. https://www.shropshire.gov.uk/customer-services/find-a-customer-service-point/ Parents should check opening times and availability before visiting these sites.
