Admissions

We follow the Norfolk County Council Policy on School Admissions.

Where admission is offered prior to compulsory school age, parents may defer their child’s entry into school until later in that academic year.

In the event of over-subscription for places in Garvestone Primary School the Governors will give preference to children living nearest the school according to the following criteria:

• Children with a statement of Special Educational Needs naming that school.
• Children who live within the designated area and:
• Have a sibling attending the school at the time of their admission.
• Have a sibling attending the local High school at the time of their admission.
• Have no sibling attending the school or local High school at the time of their admission.
• Children who reside outside the designated area and:
• Have a sibling attending the school at the time of their admission.
• Have a sibling attending the local High school at the time of their admission.
• Have no brother or sister attending the school or local High school at the time of their admission.

If you would like to apply for a place at Garvestone Primary School please contact admissions at the local authority.

It is important that you make sure that the local authority has received the application for a place for your child by the deadline set by the local authority.
