First Admissions 2023

Applications for Reception Class 2023 are open now

If your child lives in Nottinghamshire and requires a school place for September 2023, you must apply through Nottinghamshire County Council. 

This information applies to children who are 5 years old between 1 September 2023 and 31 August 2024

Admissions to schools: Guide for parents 2023-2024  is available at www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/admissions

The guidance contains a wide range of useful information and advice about the admissions process.

Parents sometimes think that making only one preference will ensure that a place is allocated at that

school, that is not the case, and it is very important that you apply on time and identify 4 preferences.

Applying late significantly reduces the chances of your child being allocated one of your preferred

schools as places will have been allocated on National Offer Day to people who applied on time.
