BOOK A TOUR: For September intake, for those within catchment with a child currently attending a feeder school, we will be offering tours in November and will communicate details via your child’s school. Feeder schools are; Crown Meadow First School, St Andrew’s First School, Beoley First School and Blackwell First School. Those in catchment and not attending a feeder school or, looking to apply for a Year 7 place can also use the same booking form. No individual tours will be offered. For in-year applications, we ask you to email admissions@alvechurch.worcs.sch.uk to book a tour.
Main intake Year 5: Please consider when applying for year 5, we annually receive more than 180 applications for the 120 places available therefore, please ensure you add three schools to your application. Prior to applying, we ask you to check whether we are your child’s catchment school by using the Worcestershire school search tool as attending a feeder school does not mean you are in catchment. If you are not in catchment, we strongly advise you have alternative schools in mind, this will not impact on your application to our school as all applications are ranked in order of our published admissions criteria found on our admissions policy. The closing date for Middle school applications is mid January with allocation of school offers sent to parents in April.
All applications: Are processed via Worcestershire County Council website. For exact dates and to complete application, please visit; Apply for a school place | Worcestershire County Council
