Admissions to Nursery
At Normanton Common Primary Academy, we ensure all our children have a strong start and build firm foundations for learning. If you are interested in a Nursery place for your child, please contact our school office to request a ‘nursery application form’. Once completed and returned your child will be placed on our nursery waiting list and will be eligible to join our nursery the term following their third birthday. We have a limited number of 30 hours places available – please indicate this on the form.
| Child’s date of birth and term | When they’re eligible to join nursery |
| 1 January – 31 March (Spring) | Summer (after Easter) |
| 1 April – 31 August (Summer) | Autumn (September) |
| 1 September – 31 December (Autumn) | Spring (January) |
You will receive a letter with details of the place offered direct from Normanton Common Primary Academy the term before your child is due to start in nursery. Please ensure school remain notified of any change of address and telephone numbers.
Your child will then be invited to join a stay and play session and meet the nursery staff.
Admissions to Reception
If you are interested in a full-time place for your child in a class from Reception to Year 6, please contact our office to make an appointment to look around our wonderful school. For admissions from Reception onwards, we adopt Wakefield Council’s Admissions Policy. Full time school places (Reception to Year 6) are allocated by Wakefield Council Admissions.
