Admission Appeals
The appeals timetable for primary school entry into Reception in September 2025 can be found on the Council website.
In-year transfers
There may be the opportunity for transferring from other schools if places are available, however we are currently full.
Guidance on transferring to Windrush is available from Oxfordshire County Council; their website explains how the transfer process works at https://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/residents/schools/apply-school-place
Nursery
Parents need to express an interest in a nursery place directly to the school office.
The oversubscription criteria can be found on our Nursery page.
If there is availability, parents will also be able to purchase additional hours to their free entitlement.
Religious character
Windrush Church of England Primary School is supported by the Oxford Diocesan Board of Education (ODBE) and offers an education based on Christian values. It is a Church of England (Anglican) school in character, but is for children of all faiths and none.
No preference will be given to practising Anglican families in the admissions process.
