The deadline for applying for a Reception Year place for September 2026 was 15th January 2026. 

Waiting list 

We hold a waiting list after national offer day. How to add your child to a waiting list will be explained in the offer or decision letter you are sent.  

If your child is added to a waiting list after offer day and a place becomes available before the new school year starts, the Local Authority will automatically allocate the place at your higher preference school and automatically withdraw the place at a lower preference school to give it to another child, even if you have accepted that place. 

We hold waiting lists for all the year groups as follows: 

  • your child’s place on a list is decided by the oversubscription criteria in the school’s admission policy (the rules for prioritising places)  
  • each time a child is added or removed, the list is ranked again and your child can move down if another child meets higher criteria  
  • the waiting list will close at the end of the academic year (July). You must reapply for a new school place to be on the list the following year  
  • looked after children, previously looked after children and those allocated a place at the school in accordance with a Fair Access Protocol take priority over those on a waiting list. 

Your right to appeal 

If your child has not been offered a place at Primley Wood Primary School, you have the right to appeal to an independent appeal panel. 

You can only lodge an appeal if you have; 

  • received notification that the local authority have not been able to offer you the school of your preference 
  • listed the school on your application form 

Appeal forms and more information about appeals can be found at https://www.nishkamschooltrust.org/pwps/admissions/how-to-apply 

The closing date for primary appeals is 15th May 2026
