Admissions
We welcome admissions enquiries in school.
If you are interested in sending your child to Colton Primary School and would like to find out more about the school, have a look around, or to be sent a copy of our prospectus, do not hesitate to contact the school Reception on 0113 264 7514.
Our admissions arrangements are managed centrally through the Admissions Team at Leeds City Council Children's Services. If you would like to find out more about the admissions process, please contact them on 0113 2224414, by email at education.admissions@leeds.gov.uk or visit the Education Leeds Admissions webpage.
In-year applications: How to apply
Parents and carers may apply at any time for an in-year school place. Application forms are provided and processed by Leeds City Council (tel. 0113 222 4414).
If you have moved to a new house, please upload evidence of the move with the online application.
Parents and carers will be notified in writing by the school of its decision. This will be within 15 school days of your in-year application being received.
If the school is unable to offer a place, your child’s name will automatically be added to the school’s waiting list, which will be kept open until the end of the school year in July 2024.
Where a place becomes available, this will be offered from the waiting list, based on the oversubscription criteria within the school’s admissions policy.
In-year applications
(1 September 2023 to 31 August 2024)
If you would like to change schools, or if you are moving into the area for example, you can apply for a school transfer, by making an in-year application.
An in-year application is for the admission of a child to Reception if submitted on or after the first day of the first school term of the admission year; or it is for the admission of a child to any other age group at any time.
Red Kite Learning Trust and its Leeds schools are part of the Leeds City Council co-ordinated in-year admissions scheme.

Appeals
Appeals Procedure
Parents and carers may appeal against the Trust’s decision not to offer their child a place at the school. The appeals are arranged by Leeds City Council. Appeals submitted for a Reception place, for a child to start school at the beginning of the academic year in September 2024, will need to be received by Leeds City Council’s deadline to guarantee being heard before the new school year starts (see below link).
