Admission Arrangements (for all age groups)

 Newbold Church of England Primary School is a school whose foundation is solidly built on the teachings of Christ’s Gospel. The ethos in the school is unashamedly Christian in character. We enjoy close links with our parish church of St. John The Evangelist, Newbold.

Derby Diocesan Multi Academy Trust (DDAT) is the Admissions Authority for the school and has delegated all matters relating to admissions to the Local Governing Body of Newbold Church of England Primary School.  It is the duty of the Governing Body to draw up and implement both the Admission Policy and Over-subscription Criteria. Any comments regarding the Admission arrangements can be sent to the Chief Executive Officer (Derby Diocesan Academy Trust), Derby Church House, Full Street, Derby, DE1 3DR

The admission policy has been adopted by the Governing Body and will operate from September 2023.  It applies to all applications for the school year 2024-25.

In all cases admissions will be made via the Local Authority’s Centralised Admission System.

ONLY APPLICATIONS FOR SCHOOL PLACES LINKED TO RELIGIOUS CRITERIA NEED TO COMPLETE THE SUPPLEMENTARY FORM, WHICH CAN BE FOUND AT THE END OF THE ADMISSIONS POLICY.  APPLICATIONS FOR ANY OTHER REASON (EG LOCAL AREA, SIBLINGS ETC) DO NOT NEED TO COMPLETE THE SUPPLEMENTARY FORM, AND THIS REQUIREMENT CAN BE DISCARDED. 

All decisions relating to admission applications will be taken by the Governing Body of the school.
