In-Year Admissions

For ‘In Year’ applications received outside the normal admissions round, if places are available they will be offered to those who apply. Direct application to the school can now be made under this heading.  If there are places available but more applicants than places then the published oversubscription criteria will be applied.  Please refer to the current Admission Policy for oversubscription criteria.

 

Please call the school office on 01695 728989 and they will take your contact details and you will be informed if a place is available in the relevant year group.  If there is not a place you will be invited to join our waiting list, based on our admissions criteria. 

Appeals

The school's admission appeals are supported by Lancashire County Council. Further information about these can be found by clicking the link below:
