For a Nursery Application Form and our Nursery Handbook, please see below:
If you have not been offered a place at Aveley Primary School, you can appeal the decision to an independent appeals panel which is completely independent to the school and the Local Authority.
If you wish to appeal for a place in Reception, year 1 or year 2, please use this link to complete your appeal online.
If you wish to appeal a place for a place in years 3 - 6, please use this link to complete your appeal online.
Please do NOT use any other appeal form or send your form to your local authority. It is suggested that you download the explanatory booklet about appeals which you should read before you complete the appeal form.
Last day for lodging appeals forms for a place in Reception to start in September 2026 is 12 noon on Wednesday 20th May 2026 to guarantee that your appeal will be heard in the first round of appeals.
Appeals lodged after this date may not be heard until the second round which could be in September 2026.
You will receive an invitation letter giving details about your hearing at least 10 school days before your hearing.
