This process is called first admissions and is dealt with directly by the local authority. You will receive a letter directly to your home address in the November of the school year prior to the next academic year when your child will become five. 

All information is available at www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk  Parents/carers are required to apply on a common application form through their ‘home’ local authority.

You will need an email account if you wish to make an online application; it is a safe and secure way to apply and you can make changes to your application right up to the closing date. You will receive an email to acknowledge that your application is being processed.

 You can find further information from Nottinghamshire County Council here.
