Admissions

You can gain direct access to the Staffordshire schools admissions site below.

Staffordshire School AdmissionsThis will allow you to access all of their information and allow you to enrol your child into a Staffordshire school.

Admission appeals

All children who have been refused a place at our school are automatically added to a waiting list which will be maintained by the Local Authority until the end of the Autumn Term following the planned admission date.

If you couldn't get a place for your child, you can appeal against the decision. Appeals should usually be made within 20 school days of the date of notification that the application was unsuccessful. 

You can appeal for any or all of the schools where you have been refused admission. 

Your appeal will be heard by an appeal panel, independent of the school and the Local Authority.

Further information and guidance on the appeals process can be found on the Local Authority's website.
