If your child was born between 1st September 2015 and 31st August 2016, they will start reception class at the start of the new school year in September 2020. The online application service (external link) is now open. You may have registered an interest previously at a Wigan primary school but this is not an application for a school place. To be considered for your preferred primary schools, you must apply online (external link) or fill in the Wigan Council primary school application form.

If you need any help using the online service please contact the School Organisation Team on 01942 489013. Application forms are also available from Wigan primary schools.

The closing date for applications is 15th January 2020.
