An application should be made to the school completing the in-year admissions application form and returning it to: Chair of admissions, St Winefride's Catholic Primary School,  Mellock Lane, Neston, CH64 9RW or by emailing admin@stwinefrides.cheshire.sch.uk 
  • Where there are places available, but more applications than places, the published oversubscription criteria, as set out in the admission arrangements for 2022-23 will be applied. Parents are advised to read the admission arrangements carefully before making their application.
  • If there are no spaces available, the child will be added to the waiting list. Please see the admission arrangements for more details.
  • You will be advised of the outcome of your application in writing (or by email) as soon as possible.
