The admissions policy of this school is common to all County and Controlled Schools in West Sussex.  The policy is outlined in the booklet ‘Information for Parents’ published by the Local Authority.  Information about admissions can also be accessed by clicking here. All schools have a Published Admission Number (PAN). If the number of applications for a particular school is within its PAN, places can normally be offered to all who apply. The PAN for Shelley is 60.

If your child is already between the ages of five and eleven and you would like them to join Shelley School, please contact the admissions team.  A place may be offered if the number in the appropriate year group is below our admission limit. All moves will be managed by the Admissions Team (see above).
