SEPTEMBER RECEPTION PLACE ADMISSIONS
September Reception place admissions to Bannerman Road Community Academy and Children's Centre are coordinated through Bristol City Council. The closing date for admissions is the January preceding the September intake.
Parents will need to apply for a place in the Reception class of the Academy directly on the council's website below. Where the number of applications is greater than the published admission number the over-subscription criteria will be applied.
Our admission number for September 2024 is 60
Our admission number for September 2025 is 60
The first round of primary admissions for Reception classes in September 2023 has now closed. The second round of primary admissions has now closed.
In order to apply for a Reception place at the school for 2024/2025 you will need to contact the school office and asked to be put on the waiting list. We will not know until mid-September if there are any places available. Students on the waiting list will have the same criteria applied as the over subscription criteria.
