CONFIRMATION OF PRIMARY OFFERS
For September 2021 offers will be confirmed online only for all those who apply on Lancashire's online system (this was around 95% of applicants the previous year). For those who do not receive a first preference offer, links to reserve list and appeal forms will be available.
Lancashire's online system will go live on the morning of 16 April 2021 and will allow online applicants to view their school offer. Please be patient as around 13,000 applicants may be trying to access information.
Letters will be issued by second class post on 16 April 2021 to any applicants who submit a paper form.
IMPORTANT
Please return the supplementary form to the school of your choice (if applicable) & ensure you apply online too.
As we are unable to hold our Open Afternoon & Evening we invite prospective parents to come & have a look around school once our children have left for the day. These are available by "appointment only" & can be made for the weeks commencing 28th September, 5th October & 12th October.
