Please read the information given below which gives details of our admission arrangements for the school.
We are not able to admit children directly into school. You need to contact the Education Department at the Council Office. For those who pay council tax to Sandwell this would be 0121 569 2200 and ask for Admissions and Appeals Department.
The Admissions arrangement for our school can also be found in our on-line School Prospectus. A copy of this information is shown below:
