Admissions

In-year applications

If you are transferring from another school, you can contact us directly to apply for a place. Forms are available below or from the school reception. Please also contact us here or by phone to arrange a visit to the school.

Minerva Primary School has a planned admission number of 25 places. We have a total of 6 classes and our current Year 4 and Year 5 cohort share a classroom with a total of 32 children. Years 4/5 (1 class) are at full capacity based on health and safety guidance as well as ensuring quality provision for all chidlren. Unfortunately, we are therefore unable to admit any children to these year groups at this time.
