This policy will be used during 2026-2027 for allocating places in the main admission round for entry to Year R in September 2027. The published admission number (PAN) for Woodcroft Primary School for 2026-2027 is 30.
Hampshire County Council is the admission authority for Woodcroft Primary School. The admission arrangements are determined by the County Council, after statutory consultations. Applications are open from 1st November 2026- 15th January 2027.
The County Council will consider first all those applications received by the published deadline of midnight on 15th January 2027. Notifications to parents offering a primary or infant school place will be sent by the County Council on 16 April 2027. Applications made after midnight on 15 January 2026 will be considered after all on-time applications have been fully processed unless exceptional circumstances merit consideration alongside on-time applications.
For the normal admission round, all on time preferences will be considered simultaneously and ranked in accordance with the admission criteria. If more than one school can offer a place, the parent’s highest stated available preference will be allocated.
