Changing School in-year

An in-year application is for children requiring a school place during the school year, rather than at the usual transfer time. All SNMAT academies have opted into their respective Local Authorities in Year coordinated schemes. If you are looking to apply in year for a Nottinghamshire School this can be done by visiting: Changing school in-year | Nottinghamshire County Council

Right of Appeal

Under the terms of the School Admissions Appeals Code 2021, if you apply for and are refused a place at Hucknall National Primary School you have the right to appeal.

Admission Appeals at SNMAT academies are managed by Nottinghamshire County Council, who provide an independent appeals process.  If you decide that you wish to proceed with an appeal, you should within 20 school days of the date of the refusal letter complete the online form on Nottinghamshire County Council's website:
