We would be delighted if you chose to send your child to All Hallows CE Primary School. Our catchment area covers the parish boundaries of All Hallows Gedling, and St Paul's in Carlton. If you follow this link http://www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/findmynearest and insert your postcode you will be given a list of your catchment area schools. You will find that as well as being in our catchment area you will also have a second school. This is because of our church school status. It is worth pointing out that, whilst we are a church school we are controlled by the Local Authority and welcome children of all faiths, and whilst church attendance can improve your child's chances of admission, it is not a requirement.
Applications are organised by the Local Authority and generally open in the Autumn term. Parents/carers usually find out about allocated school places during the Easter break. In the event of unsuccessful applications there is an appeal process and further details will be available from the Local Authority.
If you would like your child to attend our school, please see full details of the admission arrangements below, including admission criteria and Nottinghamshire County Council guidelines.
Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you have any questions. The vast majority of our children who come to us are from the final category 'Other children' in the admissions criteria.
