Transition to School

If your child is due to start school in September 2026 (birthdays that fall between 01.09.21 and 31.08.22) you can apply for a place at the school of your choice by using this link: https://www.dorsetcouncil.gov.uk/education-and-training/schools-and-learning/apply-for-a-school-place/starting-school-for-the-first-time.aspx#/

The closing date for applications is 15 January 2026

Please remember that attendance at St Catherine’s Pre-school does not automatically lead to a place at St Catherine’s Catholic Primary School.
