Admissions Information
enquiry@wps.leightrust.co.uk – our office team will be happy to help.
To apply for an in-year place at our school, please visit the school office to request an application form.
If your child is currently not attending school, or if you would like them to transfer from their current school to Wyndcliffe Primary School, you will need to complete the application form so that we can add your child to our waiting list.
Our Admissions Policy, which follows Local Authority guidelines, provides full details about how to apply for a place.
The school can admit 30 children in any class.
Admissions Policies
We ask for the following information to be provided in order to register a child:
Identification
Full Birth Certificate Or Passport
Proof of Address
Council Tax Letter Or Utility Bills (Water, Electric and Gas excluding Mobile bills)
The criteria are as follows:
1. Looked After Children LAC, children who have been previously looked after PLAC and Internationally Adopted and previously Looked After Children IAPLAC. (pursuant to the Admissions Code)
2. Children with a brother of a sister already at the academy (not Nursery) who at the time will still be in attendance.
3. Distance measurement: a straight line measurement distance from school to home.
The arrangements for children who transfer from another school to Wyndcliffe Primary are as follows:
1. Once the decision to transfer to Nansen Primary has been made, a start date for your child(ren) will be established. Details of the previous school will be taken so that records can be passed on.
2. To assist with your son’s/daughter’s transfer, parents and children will have the opportunity to view the school and meet their new teacher. Appointments will be made by the office.
If the year group is full, you will be placed on a waiting list and we will inform you when a place becomes available.
If you would like to seek more advice please feel free to come and talk to our Administrator, Mrs H Begum (Office Manager), or alternatively you may wish to contact the Admissions and Appeals Department at Birmingham City Council (telephone number: 0121 303 1888).
