Joining Bearwood

Hamwic Education Trust as the Admissions Authority for Bearwood Primary and Nursery School have determined our admissions policy. The Trust have delegated responsibility for deciding admissions to the Governing Body. In carrying out this responsibility they must consider all those applications received by the deadline in accordance with the published priority admission criteria.

It is strongly recommended that if you wish for your child to attend Bearwood Primary and Nursery School that you come and visit the school to see if it is the right fit for your child before you apply.
Parents will be notified annually of the final date for applications.
Parents need to be aware that schools cannot reserve places, even for children living locally, and if you do not complete the Borough’s application form and do not return it by the closing date your child may not be offered a place. If you wish your child to attend the local school, you need to name it as your first preference on the application form.
If you place your child on the waiting list, then you will need to apply each June to remain on the list otherwise they will be removed by School Admissions.
If we need to speak to a previous school about your child and you have not formally accepted a placement in school, we will seek the parental permission. This might arise if page 3 of the background information has not been completed.

Please note that for in year transfers the Local Authority have 15 working days to respond to an application.
