For "in year" transitions

In-year admission is the process of applying for a school place during the school year. Any application for the intake made after the start of the autumn term will be treated as an in-year application.

The in-year admission process is managed by school. Parents are required to complete the in-year application form, which is available below.

Where a place cannot be secured, parents will be offered a legal right to appeal to an independent appeal panel. Lancashire County Council administers the appeals process on behalf of the school.

Parents can complete the school's appeal form Appeal for a school place - Lancashire County Council on Lancashire county council's website.

For enquiries, please contact Mrs Harrison-Scott, Bursar at St John's Catholic Primary School on 01704 893523 or via email at bursar@burscough.lancs.sch.uk
