Admission Information
The Admission Information page is intended to outline application procedures for prospective parents applying for places at Whitegate CE Primary School.
We are a church school with Jesus at the centre of all that we do. The values of love, joy and peace are at the heart of our learning and teaching. We believe that if we trust in God, and not solely on our own understanding, the children at Whitegate C of E Primary School will have the best possible start to their lives.
The number of places available for admission to the Reception class will be a maximum of 24. The Governing Board operates a system of equal preferences under which they consider all preferences equally and the Local Authority allocates places according to its policy. In the event that there are more applicants than places, the Governing Board will allocate places using the criteria set out in the Admissions Policy.
Please see below, a virutal tour of our school. If you would like to see us in action then please contact the school office who will make you an appointment.
Applications for places in our Foundation Stage in September 2024 must be submitted to the Admissions team at Cheshire West & Chester by 15th January 2024.
