Every parent wants their child to thrive and achieve at school and we will try to support you in this process as much as possible. The guidance in this booklet is designed to make the application process as smooth as possible.

Please read this guidance carefully so that you understand how your child’s application will be processed. Applying for your child’s school place can be stressful. We have four easy tips to help you through this process: 1. Visit schools before you apply to ensure that you have all the information you need when you make your application.

Late applications are considered in the second, third and fourth rounds. 3. Use all of your preferences. We will try to offer you your first choice preference, but this isn’t always possible.

Please apply for up to: a. 5 preferences (Transfer to Secondary Education) b. 3 preferences (Transfer to Primary Education) c. You are strongly advised to use all preferences available to you 4. Check the myth-busters before submitting your application. These can be found on pages 18-19 We would like to take this opportunity to wish your child every success for the future.
