Primary School Places 2024
Parents can now apply for primary places for September 2024 at https://www.lancashire.gov.uk/children-education-families/schools/apply-for-a-school-place/.
The closing date (statutory) is 15th January 2024 for primary applications. If you would like to come and have a look round school, please contact the school office on 01995 679268.
In-Year Admissions
If you are new to the area and require a school place or if you already reside in the area and you want to move your child from their current local school to our school, your application should be made directly to our school and the child will be admitted where there are available places.
Please see our current place availability below:
Year Group | Places |
Reception | 6 |
1 | 0 |
2 | 5 |
3 | 0 |
4 | 8 |
5 | 0 |
6 | 0 |
To apply for a place, complete our In-Year Admissions form below along with the Diocesan Supplementary Information Form (if relevant) and return to head@st-michaels-on-wyre.lancs.sch.uk
If you have any questions in relation to in-year admissions, please contact us either by email at head@st-michaels-on-wyre.lancs.sch.uk or by phone on 01995 679268.
You may ring the school office to confirm that the form and accompanying evidence has been received.
Your application will be acknowledged upon receipt and we will advise you of the outcome within a maximum of 15 school days.
Where places are available, but we have more applications than places, the published oversubscription criteria will be applied, to ensure the correct child/children are offered the places.
If there are no places available, the child will be added to the waiting list and you have the right of appeal. Please see below for appeal information. Please note, that the waiting list does NOT guarantee a place at our school and if your child is currently not in education you should either make an appeal to our school and/or apply for a place at an alternative school.
Further information on how to apply for a local school can be found on the Lancashire County Council website: https://www.lancashire.gov.uk/children-education-families/schools/apply-for-a-school-place/changing-schools-during-the-school-year/
Appeals
Please contact the school office for information and advice about our appeal process.
Please note that this right of appeal against the governors’ decision does not prevent you from making an appeal in respect of any other school.
