St Francis Catholic Primary School In Year Admission Form
Please contact school if you would like a paper bound copy of our school prospectus or further admissions information. We are always happy to help.
In Year Admissions
In year admissions will be administered by the governing body of the school.
If you are new to the area or want to request a transfer to St. Francis Catholic Primary School, you may contact the school office on 01772 865369 to find out if a place is available for your child.
If there is space an application must be made by completing the in-year admissions form (above) and returning it to Miss S Deakin (Headteacher).
If we do not have any places available, you can request that your child is put on the waiting list.
If your child is moving schools during the year the start date will normally be at the beginning of the next school term. They will continue to attend their existing school until that date.
If you are new to the area and your child does not already have a school place, this does not apply.
*Please note that we do not currently have any spaces in any year group.
*Information correct as of March 2025.
Appeals
The school’s admission appeals are supported by Lancashire County Council. If the Governing Body is unable to offer a school place, parents have the right to make an appeal. The deadline for appeal for September 2025 start, is May 22nd 2025.
