Reception New Starters
Applying for Reception September 2024
Applying for a reception school place and transferring from infant to junior school (year 3) – September 2024
Applications for a reception school place and transferring from infant to junior school (year 3) – September 2024 opened on Monday 6 November 2023 for children living in Nottinghamshire.
Children who are 5 years old between 1 September 2024 and 31 August 2025 or who are transferring from an infant school (year 2) to junior school (year 3) in September 2024, and require a school place for September 2024, need to apply before the closing date of 15 January 2024.
A reminder to known families living in Nottinghamshire that have not yet applied is being sent this week. In addition, we are running some parent sessions across parts of the county in December to provide parents with key information about the admissions process.
We recommend that parents apply online at www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/admissions, they will then be able to view the outcome of their application on National Offer Day 16 April 2024. For those parents who do not apply online, and do not provide an email address, their outcome will be posted 2nd class on 16 April 2024 and no outcomes can be given over the telephone.
Parents are encouraged to read the oversubscription criteria carefully for their preferred schools and use all 4 preferences.
Please help us promote the importance of applying on time as it increases the chances of parents being offered one of their preferred schools. Attached is a leaflet PDF and a poster with information about the parent sessions, if you could please share electronically with any parents.
Thank you for your help.

Welcome to our 2023 Children and Families!
We are delighted to welcome our 2023 intake to Radcliffe On Trent Infant and Nursery School. We hope you are feeling as excited as we are about your child coming to join our school family. We are looking forward to getting to know all of you, and we hope you enjoy being part of our school community.
You have been sent a ‘Microsoft Forms’ to complete before your child starts school. This has replaced our Parental Consent forms which have been handed out in previous years. You will also be emailed an All About Me form to complete so we can gain more information about your child and their likes and dislikes. Please complete these at your earliest convenience to allow us to start preparing for September.
On your child's transition day, you should have received a bag with instructions on to tell us more about your child and family.
Over the coming weeks Mrs Lamb, our Early years Lead, will be contacting your children’s nurseries and playgroups to find out a bit more about them, so please make sure that your child’s childcare is aware that they will be moving to Radcliffe On Trent Infant and Nursery School.
Please keep your eye on this page as we will be uploading any other relevant information that will help you and your child to get to know us know more.
We look forward to working in partnership with you to provide the best possible education for your child. We know starting school is a big step so please do not hesitate to get in touch via email admin@rotins.notts.sch.uk or telephone the office 0115 911 2991 should you have any questions.
