In-Year Admissions
An in-year admission application is made when your child needs to join our school outside of the normal admission round: for example, you have moved house and need a school closer to home.
To apply for a space at Yorkmead Junior and Infant School you must do the following:
- Complete an in-year admission application form and ensure part 4 is completed by your child’s current Head Teacher. Application forms are available at your child's current school, at our school office or online.
- Bring the completed application to the school office with proof of your child’s date of birth (original copies of a birth certificate or a passport) and proof of your home address dated within the last three months.
Who processes your application form? In-year application forms are uploaded onto the Impulse Schools Portal and priority is set by whether a sibling is already attending Yorkmead, a child's specific vulnerabilities and distance from school.
When will parents be notified of the outcome? Upon receipt of an application, the school will aim to notify parents within 10 working days. If our school is full, children will be added to the waiting list for the current academic year.
