Admissions
Introduction
Minster Trust for Education (MITRE) acts as the admission authority for all its member schools.
All MITRE schools follow the Nottinghamshire County Council Co-ordinated Admissions Scheme for applications for intake at the "normal time" (starting primary school, moving to junior school, starting secondary school). For further information about the scheme and how to apply, follow the link below:

The school catchment area includes from the centre to the south of Kirkby-in-Ashfield. Children from outside the catchment area can be accommodated if spaces remain in the year group once all in-catchment area children have been accommodated.
A map of the catchment area is available via this link: School Details | Nottinghamshire County Council
Our PAN (Pupil Admission Number) has now been increased from 45 to 60 children.
