Admissions
If you would like your child to attend our school, please see full details of our admission arrangements below:
Early Years Part-time Admissions Policy
The Governing Body is responsible for part-time admissions to the school’s Early Years Lower Foundation Stage (Nursery) and agrees to follow the Early Years Part-time Admissions Policy set by Wakefield Council. The school has a 78 place nursery. This means that a maximum of 39 part-time children can be admitted per session. If you would like to apply for a place for your child to attend Flanshaw School Nursery, please read the information in our Lower Foundation Admissions Policy below.
We currently have places in our setting for 3 and 4 year olds - pupils usually start with us the term after they turn 3. We have three intakes to our lower foundation setting each year in September, January and after Easter. Please complete an application form and return to the school reception or email it to reception@flanshawjin.co.uk to place your child on the waiting list.
Main School Admissions - Reception to Year 6
Wakefield Council Admissions Team manage admissions for full-time school places in year groups from Upper Foundation (Reception) through to Year 6. If your child is currently attending another school and you wish them to move to this school or vice versa, you will first need to contact the Admissions Team (see contact details below) to check whether there are any places available at schools within your catchment area. They will then talk you through the application process:
