Y3 Admissions September 2026

Thank you for considering Short Heath Junior School for your child.

Infant - Junior
Children born between 1 September 2018 and 31 August 2019 are due to transfer from infant to junior school in September 2026. Where a child attends an infant school, parents/carers need to apply to join the partner junior school.
As always, we recommend that parents and carers make use of all three preferences available to them.
The applications process is all online, and our school admissions team are hosting drop-in sessions throughout this term to support parents and carers with any questions they have, so please encourage parents/carers to make use of the support available.
