Our governing board has chosen to work with Blackpool Council to co-ordinate all our admissions. Therefore, if you have just moved into the area, or your child is already attending a primary school in Blackpool and you are thinking of moving them to our school, please click [here](https://www.blackpool.gov.uk/Residents/Education-and-schools/School-admissions/New-to-the-area-or-wishing-to-transfer.aspx) to take you to the application form which you must complete. Your application will then be forwarded to the school for our governors to decide whether or not a place is available. If your child was born between 1st September 2022 and 31st August 2023, you should have applied for a school place for September 2026 by **15th January 2027**. If you have missed this deadline, please contact the local authority in which you live as a matter of urgency.
