- For present Reception Class places, admissions are processed through Lancashire County Council until November, after that, Tarleton Holy Trinity then deals with the admissions as an ‘in year’ transition.
- 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 the school. Parents are required to complete the in-year application form, which is available by clicking here. 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.
