In Year Admissions

St. James’ C of E Primary School manage our own in-year applications, please see Admissions policy for further details of over subscriptions.

At St. James’ Primary School we are committed to ensuring that we admit pupils through a carefully organised process making sure that pupils settle happily and make a good start.

If you have any queries regarding admissions, please get in touch by phone, 020 7237 3111.  We would be happy to show you round our wonderful school (by appointment only).

In-year admissions will follow the normal admissions criteria and school policy.  If there are no spaces available at the time of your application, your child’s name can be added to a waiting list for the relevant year group. When a space becomes available it will be filled by one of the pupils on the waiting list in accordance with the oversubscription criteria listed in the policy. Priority will not be given to children on the basis that they have been on the waiting list the longest. We will notify you of the outcome of your application within 15 school days, and if required add you to the waiting list.

Please complete the online form on this page and submit it, it will be processed on receipt, you will be contacted in due course.  If you are unable to access the form please call the school office and speak to Mrs. Brenta, who will be happy to help.

If your child is due to start Reception from September 2023, please contact us via email, as school is currently closed for the summer break. Email office@st-james.southwark.sch.uk
