Applying for a mid-year (in-year) transfer to Gorsemoor Primary School involves a straightforward process in collaboration with Staffordshire County Council. This process is designed for parents or carers seeking to move their child to Gorsemoor Primary School during the academic year.
Step 1: Obtain the In-Year Application Form
To initiate the transfer, you need to complete an in-year application form. This form is available through Staffordshire County Council's website. You can also obtain it from Gorsemoor Primary School's office.
Step 2: Complete and Submit the Application
Fill out the in-year application form with accurate and comprehensive information about your child. Once completed, submit the form directly to Gorsemoor Primary School. It's important to note that verbal enquiries or visits to the school do not constitute a formal application; the completed form is required to process your request further.
Step 3: Application Review and Response
Upon receiving your application, Gorsemoor Primary School will review it in accordance with their admission criteria and the availability of places in the relevant year group. You will be notified of the outcome within 10 school days, and at the latest, within 15 school days.
Additional Information
Catchment Area: Gorsemoor Primary School serves specific catchment areas. While residing within the catchment area can be an advantage, it does not guarantee admission. Allocations depend on the availability of spaces in the desired year group.
School Visits: We encourage prospective parents to visit us here at Gorsemoor Primary School to meet the staff and have a tour of our school. This provides insight into the school's environment and ethos. Please contact the school office to arrange an appointment.

We look forward to welcoming your child to Gorsemoor Primary School and supporting their educational journey.
