PLEASE NOTE: Our Application to Vary our 2021/22 Admission arrangements has been approved by the Regional Schools Commissioner.

 Due to the temporary closure of Churches and other places of worship during the Covid19 Lockdown, (which has impacted on our normal process for verifying church attendance/faith commitment as specified in our admission arrangements), the SNMAT Trust (as our admissions authority) has applied for a variation to our 2021/22 admission arrangements.   We have received confirmation that the proposed variation has been approved by the Regional School Commissioner.  Please see below our revised 2021-22 admission arrangements and Supplementary Information Form.

Nottinghamshire County Council who administer SNMATs admissions appeals has confirmed they are still taking appeals from parents and logging them as normal, so if you wish to register an appeal for an SNMAT partner academy, please go to NCC’s website and complete the online appeals form:-

Under the terms of the School Admissions Appeals Code 2012, if you apply for and are refused a place at St Swithun's C of E Primary Academy you have the right to appeal.

Admission Appeals at SNMAT academies are managed by Nottinghamshire County Council Appeals Team, who provide an independent appeals process.  If you decide that you wish to proceed with an appeal, you should within 20 school days of the date of the refusal letter complete the online form on Nottinghamshire County Council's website:-

For parents/carers who are unable to use the online form, a printed form can requested from NCC's customer contact centre – 0300 500 80 80.  

Please find below the school’s admission arrangements which explain:

• our over-subscription criteria (how we offer places if there are more applicants than places).

For in-year admission requests, we use the Nottinghamshire County Council Co-ordinated Scheme for requests to join this school in such cases,
