Apply through the council where you live by 15 January for a Reception place starting that September. Children start Reception in the September after their fourth birthday. You can usually list between 3 and 6 schools in order of preference, and offers are sent on 16 April, or the next working day. A place in its nursery class does not carry on into Reception, so you still need to apply.
No. Distance only counts when Greystoke Primary School has more applicants than places. Then its admission criteria, set by the local authority, Westmorland and Furness, decide who is offered a place first. Children in care or adopted from care come first by law. Most schools put brothers and sisters of current pupils next, then distance or a catchment area. How far away the last place went changes every year, depending on who applies.
Greystoke Primary School had 55 pupils aged 3 to 11 at the latest school census. Its official capacity is 63. It is a mixed school.
