In-Year Admissions
An application can be made for a place for a child at any time outside of the admission round and the child will be admitted where there are available places.
An application should be made via the Local Authority by completing the in-year Admissions Application Form which is available by clicking here.
As a Catholic School, parents will also need to complete a Supplementary Information Form in addition to the standard application form that is submitted to the Local Authority. Supplementary Information Forms can be obtained from the school by contacting the school office on 01527 852140 or via email.
Supplementary Information Forms must be returned directly to the school via e-mail:
sms-office@sms.magnificat.org.uk or via post:
St Mary's Catholic Primary School
Pool Road
Studley
Warwickshire
B80 7QU
If a Supplementary Information Form is not submitted directly to the school, this may affect the priority given to the application and could affect the likelihood of your child being offered a place.
The Local Authority will forward your application to the school for consideration by the governors.
Where there are places available but more applications than places, the published oversubscription criteria, as set out in the Admission Arrangements for the 2024-2025 Academic Year will be applied.
If there are no places available, the Local Authority will notify you of this decision and the child will be added to the waiting list. Please see the admission arrangements for more details regarding waiting lists.
You will be advised of the outcome of your application in writing as soon as possible. Applicants must be informed of the outcome of their application within 15 school days of its receipt, but the aim is to notify applicants of the outcome of their application within 10 school days of its receipt.
You have the right to appeal to an independent appeal panel if your application is unsuccessful. If you have any questions in relation to in-year admissions please contact Denise McDonnell (on Tuesdays). You may also wish to discuss in-year applications with the local authority HERE.
