All admissions for children to join Reception in September are co-ordinated through the Local Authority. You will be able to apply for one of these places between November 2024 and January 2025 via the link below. You will also find information via the link on how to submit a late application after the January 2025 deadline.
Reception admissions for September 2025
All mid-year applications should be made directly to Walton on the Naze Primary School, using the mid-year application form available on our website below.
Applications should be emailed to: admin@walton.essex.sch.uk
If you do not have online access, a paper copy is available from the school office. Mid-year applications (sometimes called in-year applications) are any application for a school place made to any year group, apart from September admissions to our Reception class.
For applications into existing year groups, a place will be offered when the number of pupils in the relevant year group is below the admission number for that year group.
Please note: if a mid-year application is received during a school holiday period, we will respond as soon as possible when the school reopens.
Where a place is not available to your child, they will automatically be added to a waiting list which is held in accordance with the school’s admissions criteria which can be found in the Admissions Policies below.
Appeals are co-ordinated via Essex County Council and further information can be found at Essex Appeals.
