Our ‘planned admission number’ (PAN) is 15. This means that each year we admit 15 new starters into Class 1 (Foundation Stage). The majority of our children live locally, but are technically classed as ‘out of catchment’. Being out of our catchment area shouldn’t deter you from applying for a place at St John’s C of E Primary School as several of our families live outside of the catchment area.
Although we cannot accept your child’s application without you going through the admissions process first, we will gladly arrange a visit for you to come and have a look around our school. Contact us on 0115 9177111 and our office staff will be happy to make an appointment for you and answer any questions you may have about the admissions process.

Equal Opportunities
St John's C of E Primary School is an inclusive school that welcomes all pupils regardless of background, special need, ability, gender or race. It is assumed that parents choose this school because they want a Christian education for their child and are willing for them to take part in all the activities of the school. Every step will be taken to ensure equal access to education.
We recognise and celebrate our similarities and differences and help our pupils to become kind, caring and considerate members of the community.
Please note that children do not need to be a confirmed or baptized Christian in order to attend our school. We welcome people of all faiths and of none.
