If you would like your child to attend our school, please see full details of our admission arrangements below.

Places are allocated in line with Milton Keynes Council admissions criteria, taking into account the class size limits of 30 pupils per class for pupils age 5, 6 or 7 at Key Stage 1.

The criteria applies to admissions of children who are:

(a) starting school for the first time

(b) transferring at 6+

(c) requesting admission during the year e.g. newly moved into the area

Milton Keynes Council will do everything possible to allocate a place at your preferred school. There is, however, no guarantee of a place at the school serving the area where you live. More information here Admissions

Children moving into other Year Groups Parents of children who move into the area may apply for a place at the school by contacting Milton Keynes Council (Admissions 01908 253338). There may be vacancies in other Year Groups. If not, Milton Keynes Council will assist parents to find an alternative school in the area. If a place is offered to your child we provide a full induction programme to ensure your child settles in to St Mary’s Wavendon as soon as possible.

Induction for In-Year Admissions

If your child is offered a place at St Mary's during the academic year, we offer an induction process to help your child settle into the school. It is key that the induction process enables all children and families to settle into life at St Mary's as smoothly and positively as possible. 

Children Starting School in September 2027

We will be welcoming parents of children starting school in September 2027 and inviting them to attend a tour of Reception Classes.  We will have a walk around with questions at the end and it will last for about half an hour. If you would like to have a tour around St Mary's please book via the process below. 

You need to book your place as we will not be able to let you join a tour without registering with us first.

telephone: 01908 582182

Please be aware that the tours are for parents only and we are unable to accommodate children or siblings.
