| 0 comments

ENROLMENT OF NEW P1 CHILDREN SHOULD BE COMPLETED BY 22ND JANUARY 2021.

North Lanarkshire Council has put in place a new system for Registration of Infant Beginners to support our ongoing response to COVID-19.

Parents/carers of children who attain the age of five years between 1 March 2021 and 28 February 2022, should register by 22 January 2021 for starting Primary 1 in August 2021.

A new interactive Primary 1 Enrolment Form is available (see below). Parents/carers can enrol online and submit a copy of their child’s birth certificate and council tax/utility bill to their child’s catchment school.

If you do not live within our catchment area, you should still enrol at your local catchment school and submit a placing request.

Completed forms should be sent directly to your catchment school enquiries mailbox.  The email address for St. John Paul II is enquiries@johnpaul.n-lanark.sch.uk but to access email addresses for other North Lanarkshire Schools, click on the link above.

Please note – the form is interactive and can be completed on your computer. You may experience difficulties if you attempt to download and complete the form on a mobile device.

The documents you’ll need:

  1. A copy (scanned/snapshot picture) of your child’s birth certificate.
  2. If you don’t have a council tax notice, you can print a copy on our council tax portal.  You can access this by clicking HERE.

You can learn more about choosing a school for your child on the Scottish Government website by clicking HERE.

Parents/carers who want to defer entry for their child to primary school and apply for an additional year of part-time pre-school should register their child for school as described above and complete the deferred entry application form. This document is available from the school.

If you have any questions about deferred entry, please contact Mr Thomas on  01698 522723 or email enquiries@johnpaul.n-lanark.sch.uk.
