Admissions

We would welcome the chance to show you around our wonderful school. Please ring 01524 770241 to book an appointment. We are very proud to be a Church school, although Church attendance is not compulsory to being able to apply for a place here – we are also the village school and are here to serve our community, whatever your religious beliefs.. Below is all the information you need to know about our admission criteria. If you have any questions, please ring Mr Gittins for a conversation. Admissions for Reception 2024 are now closed and parents will find out shortly which school their child has been allocated. Click the link below to apply – search for us under Brookhouse if you can’t find us under Caton St Paul’s.

Our admissions arrangements for 2025 – 26 are now determined after a period of consultation and are available below.

In-year admissions

If you are new to the area and require a school place or if you already reside in the area and you want to move your child from their current local school to our school, your application should be made directly to our school and the child will be admitted where there are available places. If you wish to apply for an in-year admissions place, please fill in the in-year admissions form and return it to bursar@stpauls.lancs.sch.uk. We would be happy to show you around our school; please email us to arrange an appointment.

Once your admission form is submitted to school, we will endeavour to inform you of our admissions decision within one week.

If there are no places available, you have the right of appeal.
