Admissions to our school for children entering our Reception Class (4/5yr olds) to Year 6 (10/11yr olds) are organised by Wigan Council. All admissions to our Nursery classes are organised by ourselves, Britannia Bridge Primary School. Each class, in Reception to Year 6, has a maximum number of 30 children.
