Welcome to our Admissions Section

Admissions Consultation

Following extensive discussion amongst the Governing Body, we are consulting on the removal of the previous oversubscription criteria "f", which used to read: 

Children living outside the Catchment Area who meet the faith criterion

A child living outside the Catchment Area is eligible for this category where the child is a regular practising Christian at a recognised Church or Religious Group.

There has now been a new item added under f) 

 Children of Staff: 

Children of staff in either or both of the following circumstances: 

1. Where the member of staff has been employed at the Academy for two or more years at the time at which the application for the admission to the Academy is made, and/or 
2. The member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage. 

The proposed policy is found in the pdf below.

Written responses should be received by the School Office (admin@winterslow.wilts.sch.uk) no later than mid-day on Friday 21 January 2022, so that the final decision can be made at the Full Governing Body Meeting the following week.

Applications for Reception places usually closes in January each year.  If you are interested in visiting our school please contact the school office to arrange a tour.  Open mornings are held in October and June each year.

Application forms are available online at www.wiltshire.gov.uk or should you have any queries the school office would be happy to help.
