School Admission Information

The school has an admission limit of 60 pupils to Foundation Stage 2. Applications for admission must be made to the Local Authority.  The online application process opens annually from October until January.

The school will admit all children with a statement of special educational needs or an Education, Health and Care plan (EHCP) in which the school is named.

Where, after the admission of children with statements of special educational needs or EHCPs naming the school, there are more applications for admission than places remaining available within the admission number, the Governing Body’s Admission Committee has agreed a strict criteria detailed in the Admissions Policy.

At Alderman Cogan’s we work with parents to ensure that the transition from pre-school to school runs as smoothly as possible.  We invite the parents/carers and children to our transition events.  Also we invite nurseries and pre-schools to visit our school and our staff can visit you at home to discuss your child on a more personal basis.
