Admission Arrangements
At Bawtry Mayflower, our catchment area is Bawtry and Austerfield. If you live in either of these places, your child will be guaranteed a place here at Mayflower. You will need to apply through Doncaster Council Admissions Team.
If you do not live in either Bawtry or Austerfield, we do currently still have places in the following year groups:
Nursery
Reception
Year 2
Year 3
