In Year Admissions
If you are new to the area or want to request a transfer to Moor Park High School and Sixth Form you should ring the school direct (01772 795428) and ask to speak to the Admissions Officer. If you prefer, you can call at school to briefly discuss your request with the Admissions Officer. The school office is open during term-time only, 8.15am to 4pm.
The Admissions Officer will inform you if there is a place available in the relevant year group or whether the year group is full. You must then fill out the In Year Admission Request Form and email it to [email protected].
Your child will be added to our waiting list and you will only be contacted should the school have a place for your child, due to the number of enquiries the school receives. If there is a place available in the relevant year group you will be invited to a meeting with the Deputy Headteacher or Head of Year to discuss the transfer process.
Please note that we will contact your child’s current/last school for information prior to the meeting. After the meeting, arrangements will be made for your child to attend school for an assessment so that we can ensure they are placed in the correct set/class.
If the year group is full and you wish to appeal for a place for your child you should complete the Appeal Form through Lancashire County Council with any supporting information or evidence.
Your appeal should be submitted using the link below within twenty days of refusal of admission. The appeal provides you with an opportunity to explain why you wish to register your child at our school. The appeal forms and advice on how to complete them is available on the Lancashire County Council website:
Please note that if your child is unhappy in their current school for whatever reason, for example alleged bullying or not getting oneals/ with a teacher, you should first contact the Headteacher of the school where your child attends and discuss the problems before changing schools. School transfer is very disruptive for any child and it is not encouraged if the problem can be resolved by the current school.
Due to the volume of requests we receive it is our school policy to retain admission requests for one term only, after which, details will be confidentially disposed of. If you still require a school place in the following term, please contact us to keep hold of your details.
