School Admission
Infant School Admissions: September 2026
We would love to invite you and your child to join our school , and we are currently expecting to have spaces in our Year Reception cohort starting in September 2026. If you would like to find out about all the wonderful learning opportunities our children experience at Benhall Infant School, please get in touch with us!
Admissions Process
Parents will receive a form from Gloucestershire County Council in November the year before your child is due to start school requesting you to choose your first five preferences of schools. This form needs to be sent back to the Gloucestershire County Council by early January. It is important you do not miss the deadline date for returning the form otherwise you will risk missing out on your first choice of school.
You will be notified which school your child has been allocated around Easter time by Gloucestershire County Council. The school your child has been allocated will then be in touch with you to notify you of the admission arrangements and visits to school.
Details can be found on the County Council's website:-
