If you have any queries about how to apply for this school, please do not hesitate to contact us by phone or call in. The Inclusion Team (Admissions) can also assist with general advice. We have attached “Expression of Interest” forms below. Please use these if your child would like a place at our school. They should be handed into the school office with a birth certificate and recent utility bill. We will then send out the Council official application forms to you at the correct time for you to apply for your place. These forms provide all the details that the school needs to register your child.
