Admissions Appeals

The Admissions Appeals process for all Equals Trust schools engages Nottinghamshire County Council’s Independent Appeals Panel.  None of the members who sit on the panels have any connection to Equals Trust schools.  Their decision is independent and final.

The cost of any Admissions Appeals process is charged to the school and comes out of their allocated budget.

Nursery Admissions

Children who have their 4th birthday during the academic year, September 1st to August 31st, (the year prior to starting reception) are eligible to apply for a place at our school in N2 using their Universal 15 Hours Funding (available to all parents). Parents, who meet the eligibility criteria will be entitled to an additional 15 hours extended funding. We thoroughly enjoy having this age of children in our school and it never ceases to amaze us as to how the children settle and benefit from that extra time in our foundation class. The policy for applications to the N2 class is available in the documents below and does not go through Nottinghamshire County Council, please be aware this does not guarantee a place in Flintham Primary School’s reception class. If you wish to apply for a place in the N2 class please contact the school office.
