SCHOOL ADMISSIONS

 

DUNMORE PRIMARY SCHOOL

 

Dunmore is a very popular two-form entry primary school with a maximum of 30 children in each class. We are located in Northcourt Road, Abingdon, Oxfordshire OX14 1NR.  There is also easy access via Farm Road, which is off the main Dunmore Road (opposite some of the new North Abingdon developments).

 

All admissions into Oxfordshire maintained schools are processed through the Oxfordshire County Council's Admissions Team.  

 

Starting School - Reception Year

 

Children starting school for the first time in Reception Year will do so in the September following their fourth birthday.  If your child is, or will be, 4 years old by 31 August 2025 you must apply for a school place in Reception Year for September 2025.  You should apply online via Oxfordshire County Council  - Apply for a school place | Oxfordshire County Council.  Applications for September 2025 will be open from Monday 4 November 2024 to 15 January 2025 (for on-time applications).  Applications will still be accepted after 15 January 2025, but will be processed later than the on-time ones.

 

If your child attends Dunmore Nursery, please remember that you still have to apply for a place in Reception Year for your child.
