We know that moving from primary school to secondary school is an important stage in every child’s life. The process for applying can seem quite complicated and we appreciate you may have lots of questions
With this in mind we have pulled together some of the Frequently Asked Questions and Answers in an attempt to help you. These are found in the tabs below.
You can also watch our Virtual Open Evening Tour by clicking HERE.
Choosing a new school and waiting to find out whether a place has been allocated is a very emotive time. Please contact the school direct if you wish to talk to someone or for more advice and support.
If you have any other questions which you would like to see answers to on this page, please email [email protected]

Wollaston School 2023 / 2024 Prospectus
Who can apply for a secondary place at Wollaston?
What is the current published catchment area for Wollaston School?
If I do get a place for my son/daughter this year, how will that affect younger siblings in future years?
Is transport provided for students and especially those who live outside the catchment area for the school?
Bozeat, Brafield on the Green, Castle Ashby, Chadstone, Cogenhoe, Denton, Earls Barton, Easton Maudit, Great Doddington, Great Houghton, Grendon, Irchester, Knuston, Little Houghton, Strixton, Whiston & Yardley Hastings.
Students from other areas can apply for a concessionary bus pass which is only available if there is room on the buses after all Main School students have been allocated a seat. If this application is successful then the student will only have free transport from the nearest stop on the County bus route and for example a student living in Rushden would need to make their own way to the nearest stop in Irchester. Wollaston School is also served by a local company who provide a bus service from Rushden to Wollaston (and return) which is for exclusive use of our own students. However, there is a fee to be paid each way by the students using this service and the cost must be borne by the family.
