Ysgol Licswm Church in Wales Voluntary Aided School accepts pupils between the ages of 3 and 11 years of age. Ysgol Lixwm has a capacity for 88 pupils on roll including 11 Nursery.
As a Church in Wales Voluntary Aided School, the admissions committee established by the governing body of the School is responsible for the admission of pupils. A parental preference form for nursery and primary school admission will be available on line
(preferred method of application) on
www. flintshire.gov.uk/schools/schooladmissions or by contacting the admissions team (admissions@ flintshire.gov.uk; 01352 704068/704073).
Forms will be available according to the admissions timetable as set out in the Flintshire County Council Admissions Guide.
Parents are welcome to visit the school. Appointments to see teachers are best made outside school hours as an impromptu visit may disrupt a class lesson.
For security reasons all visitors during the school day are requested to report to the office. Prospective parents are invited to contact the school to arrange a visit during school hours, not only to see the head and staff, but also to sample the working atmosphere of the school.
Nursery Children aged 3+ are admitted to our Nursery in the September of the academic year that they attain the age of four. Children commence school in small groups over a few days.
We also offer an Early Entitlement for children who turn 3 during the school year.
Admissions are in January and April. They attend for four part time sessions a week. This can be included in the 30 hours childcare provision in conjunction with our wraparound care facility at Clwb Bwythyn Bach in Caerwys.
We hope that by joining in these formative years we lay good educational foundations.
We keep a waiting list of children and we encourage parents to place their child’s name on this list after their second birthday as this helps with forward planning.
The LEA is the admitting authority for all children in the county of Flintshire. Each child about to commence full time education will be offered a place in a school maintained by the LEA. Children in our Nursery Class who live in catchment will automatically be offered a place in our Reception Class. All children living in our catchment area are guaranteed a place at our school. Admission for older classes can be arranged at any time and parents are asked to consult the Headteacher. Children outside our catchment can also apply.
