Skipton Parish is a Church of England Primary School which converted to become part of the Yorkshire Causeway Schools Multi Academy Trust in August 2021. As such, the governing body is the Admissions Authority.
Whilst governing body is the admissions authority, arrangements for applications for places at Skipton Parish Church of England Primary School will be made in accordance with North Yorkshire Council (NYC) co-ordinated admission arrangements, this includes in-year applications for admission to the school.
In Year Admissions.
For families moving into the area, or for children changing schools during the year, in-year admissions to the school are dealt with by the Admissions team at North Yorkshire Council. To make an application or for more information please click here.
Reception Admissions
All school applications are administered by the Admissions team at North Yorkshire Council. Providing that you live within North Yorkshire, have registered with a local doctor, you should automatically receive information about the admission process once your child reaches the age of 4. North Yorkshire Council prefer on-line applications and the school office can help with this if necessary.
All new Reception aged children join the school from September of each academic year.
Induction for New Reception Starters
Once we know your child has been offered a place at Skipton Parish Church of England Primary School, you will receive a letter inviting you meet your child's new teacher. This is arranged during the term before your child starts Reception . At the meeting you will find out more about school routines and see your child's classroom. We invite your child into school for two half-day sessions enabling them to experience some of the activities they will enjoy when they join our school.
In addition, Early Years staff will visit each child in their current setting in order to ensure a smooth transition from nursery to school.
