Moving from Caterpillars (Nursery) to Butterflies (Reception)

Despite previously applying for a Nursery place at Hanwell Fields, you will need to re-apply for a Reception school place. This will need to be applied through Oxfordshire County Council Admissions and not via the school direct. The easiest way for you to apply for your child’s school place is using the Oxfordshire County Council’s online system. You can access information regarding Primary School Applications here

As part of the process you will be required to list three schools in order of preference. It is strongly advised that you use all three options despite wanting a place in just one setting. Oxfordshire County Council suggest ensuring that at least one of your options is your catchment school. To find out where this is (or to make sure we are your catchment school), please enter your postcode on the above website.

Remember- DON’T BE LATE! A late application means you are less likely to get a place with us. If you need support with the application process, please approach a member of the Nursery team and we will arrange some time to help you.

Moving on to Secondary School

 To apply online for secondary school, please visit the Oxfordshire website here.Please note, applications are now open for your child to start Secondary School in September 2025. Applications close on 31st October 2024. National offer day is on: 3rd March 2025. It is advised that you attend open days and look into secondary school websites, so that you can get a better understanding of the school.
