Admission of Children Outside Their Normal Age Group  

Applicants may seek a place for their child outside of their normal age group, for example, if the child is gifted and talented or has experienced problems such as ill health.  In addition, in relation to a summer born child (ie a child born from 1 April to 31 August), applicants may choose not to send their child to school until the September following their fifth birthday and may request that they are admitted out of their normal age group – to Reception rather than Year 1. Those applicants seeking admission out of normal age group should follow the procedure outlined in the Admissions Policy. Acceptance of such an application is not automatic and all decisions will be made on the basis of the circumstances of each case and in the best interests of the child concerned.
