Admissions

Overview

All applications to Trinity CE Primary School are dealt with by Oxfordshire County Council (OCC).  Trinity intends to admit 45 pupils per age group (PAN). You can apply for a place for your child at our school by using the application form on the OCC website:

https://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/residents/schools/apply-school-place

Even if you live outside our usual catchment area, it's always worth applying as spaces are available in most year groups.

Open Morning and School tours

If you would like to come and look around our school, we are always happy to give prospective parents and carers a tour of the school. Please contact our school office on 01491 575 887 or office.3254@trinity.oxon.sch.uk to arrange a convenient time.

How to apply for a place in Reception

If you are looking for a place in Reception from September 2027, applications should be made by 15th January 2027. Detailed information and key dates can be found here: www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/primaryadmissions 

Late applications made after 15th January 2027 may also be successful if places are available after the on-time offers have been made.

You will be asked to express a preference for up to three schools.  If it is not possible to allocate your child a place at their first choice of school, then OCC will allocate an alternative school. 

16th April is referred to as National Offer Day and this is when you will hear which school your child has been offered a place at. If you are happy with the offer you must accept the place by 30th April 2027. If you are not happy you can appeal: https://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/schools/apply-school-place/school-appeals

How to apply to change schools

If your child is already attending a school outside of the Borough and you wish to transfer them to Trinity CE Primary, then you will need to apply for an in-year transfer via: www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/schooltransfer
