School information:

Headteacher: Victoria Mitchell
Admission number: 60
Age range: 3 to 7
DfE number: 306/3406

The school is part of St Mary's Catholic Primary Schools Trust, a Multi Academy Trust consisting of St Mary’s Catholic Infant School and St Mary’s Catholic Junior School.

Nursery places:

52 part-time places

Our school has a nursery class for 3 and 4-year-olds, providing for 52 part-time places. If you would like to apply for a place for your child in our nursery class, please contact the school for further information, a copy of the application form, and the timescales for applying. If we receive more applications than there are places available at that time in our nursery class, we use our admissions criteria to prioritise applications. A copy of this is available from the school or on our school website.

Parents should be aware that attending the nursery class does not mean your child will automatically transfer to the reception class at this school. You will still need to apply at the appropriate time for a place for your child in a reception class, using both the council's common application form and the school's supplementary information form.

Supplementary Information Form (SIF)

If applying for a foundation place, the school’s SIF must be completed and returned to the school by the closing date. These supplementary forms seek information which is not collected on the LA application form, but which is needed by the school to enable them to reach a decision on your application.

You can collect a SIF from the school or download it from the school’s website. The SIF should be returned direct to the school and not to the Local Authority.

Please note: a SIF will not be considered on its own. You must also include the school as a preference on the Local Authority’s online application form.

Failure to return the SIF will mean that the school cannot consider the application under the foundation criteria; in this case the application will be considered under open places criteria.
