Enroll at Ballywalter Primary School – Quick Guide

Looking for a place for your child at Ballywalter Primary? You’re in the right spot. We’ll walk you through the whole enrollment process, from checking dates to completing the forms. No jargon, just clear steps you can follow today.

Key Dates and What You Need

First things first – mark your calendar. Applications open on 1 June and close on 31 July for the next school year. Late applications are considered only if there are spare places, so try to get yours in early.

Here’s the paperwork you’ll need:

  • Proof of address (a recent utility bill works)
  • Your child’s birth certificate
  • Immunisation record
  • Any special educational needs plan, if applicable

Gather those documents before you start the online form to avoid any hiccups.

How to Submit Your Application

We use an online portal that’s easy to navigate. Go to the "Admissions" section on our website, click "New Application," and fill in the details. The system will ask for the documents listed above – just upload clear scans or photos.

After you hit submit, you’ll get an automatic email confirming receipt. Keep that email; it has a reference number you’ll need if you call the admissions office.

If you prefer a paper form, you can pick one up at the school office during opening hours (8 am‑3 pm, Mon‑Fri). Hand in the completed form and copies of your documents at the same desk. The staff will scan them into the system for you.

Need help? Our admissions team is ready to answer questions by phone (01234 567890) or in person. They can also arrange a short tour of the school if you want to see the classrooms before deciding.

Once the application window closes, we’ll start reviewing each file. If your child meets the criteria and a place is available, you’ll get a place offer within two weeks. The offer includes a start date, uniform details, and a list of items to bring on the first day.

Should you receive an offer, you’ll need to confirm it by 15 August. Confirmation is done either through the portal or by signing the paper form and returning it to the office. If you don’t confirm in time, the place may be given to another family.

What if you don’t get a place? Don’t worry – we keep a waiting list. If a spot opens up, we’ll contact you in order of the list. You can also explore nearby primary schools as a backup.

That’s the whole process in a nutshell. It’s straightforward, and we’re here to help at every step. Ready to start? Head over to our admissions page now and lock in your child’s future at Ballywalter Primary School.
