If you want to apply for the Reception class intake year starting in September 2025, you can make your application through Derby City Council using the link below.  You can apply from 3 November 2024 to 15 January 2025.

You need to apply by the National Closing Date of 15 January 2025. Any applications made after 15 January 2025 will be classed as 'late' and considered after all 'on time' applications have been dealt with. To make an application you can:

  • apply online - it's quick and easy and lets you track the progress of your application

  • apply by phone on 01332 642730 - this takes around 5 minutes, and you will need to know the name of the school you are applying to
  • apply using a paper form - telephone 01332 642730 to ask us to send you one or your child may bring one home with them from Nursery.

If you make your application online, you will be able to access your decision on 16 April 2025 – National Offer Day. If you apply by phone or on a paper form your offer letter will be posted on 16  April 2025, second class. No decision will be given over the telephone.

Please note: The admission process for children and young people with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) is different. More information can be found on the Derby City Council website.
