Admissions

Reception and Year 1-6 Admissions
Please note that all admissions for Reception to Year 6 must be applied for directly
through the local authority. The information is available through Solihull Council
Admissions Team on 0121 704 6693 or at Solihull School Admissions

For further information, our school prospectus can be found at the bottom of this page.

Reception class

Our school follows Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council’s admission arrangements for Reception aged children.

Each year, the council publishes information detailing of the admission arrangements for Solihull schools. The information is available from the Solihull Council school admissions team on 0121 704 6693 or from the SMBC website at www.solihull.gov.uk/admissions

You can apply for a place online at http://www.solihull.gov.uk/enrol

Reception application forms are available from the Solihull School admissions Team 12 months before the child is due to start in reception.

Attendance in a school Nursery will not give any priority for a place in the reception class at the same school. A Reception application form must be completed.

Nursery

All Solihull infant and primary schools are now responsible for their own admissions policy. In order to provide as much information as possible for parents, we have published a copy of our policy for admissions, along with information leaflets about the government's 30-hour free childcare. You will also find a copy of the Nursery place application form which needs to be completed and returned to the school.
