Parents should be aware that Glebe Farm School is oversubscribed in its transition years with more applicants than places available. For in-year applications, where a year group is full, we operate a waiting list which lasts until the end of the academic year for which the application is made. The waiting list will be ranked in accordance with the over-subscription criteria and length of time on the list will not be a factor in offering a place. This means that children will move up and down the list as other children are added or removed. Being on the waiting list does not guarantee a place at the school. If you wish to keep your child on the waiting list for any subsequent academic year, you must re-apply.
