Apply for a school place
Latest
Apply for your child’s primary school place by 15 January 2021: If your child was born between 1 September 2016 and 31 August 2017, then they are due to start primary school in September 2021. Don’t miss the deadline on 15 January 2021. If you miss the deadline you are much less likely to get the school you want.
1. Understanding the application process
Before applying, please make sure you understand the process and criteria for the schools you prefer.

Be careful and accurate. If we allocate a place at a school based on incorrect information (like a wrong address or date of birth) we may withdraw the place.
