The Local Governing Committee of Brailsford CE Primary School, an academy within ACE Derbyshire Trust, is consulting on changes to the admissions policy for 2027/28. The consultation period will commence on 8th December 2025 and end on 19th January 2026. The changes are outlined HERE .
We are a small school, with a generally accepted maximum number of 17 pupils per year group – 120 pupils in total.
We know that by providing small classes and high adult-pupil ratios, we can successfully meet the individual needs of your children.
We will always consider applications above our maximum number and aim to be flexible to parent requests wherever we can.
We have a single form entry system, taking all pupils in September of the year they turn 4 years old.
If you wish to apply for a place at our school, please contact the local authority admissions service at: http://www.derbyshire.gov.uk/education/schools/school_places/. Applications for the 2025/2026 academic year are now closed. Arrangements for applications for the 2026/27 academic year can be found at Derbyshire Admissions Arrangements 2026/27
For transfers from other schools for children in Years 1-6 you will need to complete the In-Year Admission application at: https://www.derbyshire.gov.uk/education/schools/school_places/changing_schools/default.asp.
(Availability of places depends on the number of children currently in that year group).
