Academy

Starbank School is part of Star Academies. As an all-through progressive and inclusive school with a nursery for pupils aged 3-16, the Local Accountability Board will consider all applications equally.

In order to help you understand the admission process better, we have produced a number of documents listed below. Please read the documents carefully. We hope you will find them helpful and informative. Further information is also available by visiting www.birmingham.gov.uk

If after reading the listed documents, you wish to discuss any aspects of the admission arrangements, please contact the school.

Year 7 Admission

Year 6 pupils attending Starbank School automatically transfer to Year 7. There is therefore no published admission number for Year 7. Parents of Year 6 children not attending Starbank School wishing to apply for admission into Year 7 at Starbank School are required to complete an in – year application form, which is available from and returnable to school.

If there are fewer than 180 places taken up by Starbank children, then places will be offered to year 6 children from other schools. In order to ensure places are only offered to external applicants up to the published admission number of 180, the oversubscription criteria listed on page 3 will be used to determine the children that should be offered the places.

Reception Admission

The admissions process is part of the Birmingham City Council’s determined scheme for co-ordinated admissions to primary schools.
All applicants are required to complete their home Local Authority’s common application form.

Please note children offered a place at Starbank School may be educated at any of the 3 sites:

Bierton Road, Birmingham B25 8PY
The published admission number for the Reception Year intake is 180.
All applicants will be admitted if 180 or fewer apply.

Open Evening

Our Open Evenings are a chance for prospective pupils and their families to see our Academy in action. With exciting displays, in-class demonstrations and activities, they are a great opportunity to meet our pupils and speak to members of our staff in detail about the curriculum and just what we have to offer.

Our Open Evenings take place each year. We hope you will be able to visit the Academy with your child.

We hope you will join us, as we are keen to provide every one of our parents with the opportunity to access the information they need to play an active role in their child’s education.
