Applying for a reception place for September 2024:  If your child was born between 1 September 2019 and 31 August 2020, they are due to start in reception class at a primary school in September 2024.

You must apply for a reception class place for your child even if they attend a school nursery or have an older brother or sister at your preferred school. If your child currently attends our nursery this does not give them any priority for a place in reception class at St Patrick’s.  If you and your child live in Waltham Forest, you must apply through Waltham Forest. If you and your child live outside Waltham Forest, you must apply to the local authority in which you live, even if you are applying for schools in other areas.



How to apply:  The brochure Starting Primary School 2024 (3MB PDF) contains all the information you need to know about applying for a reception class place.   Please check the latest admissions information below for updates to this brochure.  Download Starting Primary School 2024.  The best way to apply is online, through the eAdmissions website. This is a secure way to apply for your child’s school place.  The eAdmissions website opened on 1 September 2023.  The closing date is 15 January 2024.  If you are applying after this date, your application will be considered as late.

You can download a guide explaining how to apply for your child's school place online (140KB PDF).

There are FAQs and guidance sheets to help you complete your online application on the eAdmissions website. If you are having a technical problem completing your application please email support@eadmissions.org.uk.
