Applications for September 2027 starters are dealt with by the Cheshire West and Chester admissions team not the school.

We warmly encourage visits to the school, please contact the school office to book a place.

Appeals

Choosing your child’s primary or secondary school can be a difficult decision for you to make. The law does not give you a choice of school but it allows you to ‘express a preference’. In Cheshire West and Chester most parents and carers get a place for their child the school they want. However, occasionally demand is higher than there are places available; therefore, some parents are refused a place for their child.  If this happens you have a legal right to appeal.
