Admissions to our school

Joining any school is an important decision taken by parents/ carers. Within TMPF Trust, we are proud to have a number of schools which offer different strengths which may appeal to children’s individual needs. The relationship between TMPF Trust schools is a positive one which recognises the importance of serving the different needs of different children.

Hollinsclough C.E. Academy is a primary school and also a flexi-school. Children must attend school on the three core days of Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. On Mondays and Fridays, children are either electively home educated or can attend school (with prior notice) which will be at our sister school, St. Bartholomew's CE Primary in the nearby village of Longnor.

All schools have a planned Pupil Admission Number (PAN). This states the number of pupils which schools may admit in September to the new Reception class. Should the school be over-subscribed, then parents/ carers have the right to appeal. Our school PAN is: 8.
