Parents and carers across 糖心vlog are reminded that the deadline to apply for a High School place for September 2026 is fast approaching.

Applications for High School places must be submitted by midnight on Thursday 31 October 2025 for children due to start High School in September 2026.

Applications are also open for children moving on to Middle School or starting school for the first time. The deadline for Primary, First, Infant, Junior and Middle School applications is 15 January 2026.

Parents and carers can apply for their child鈥檚 school place via the secure online portal, available on the School Admissions webpages.

For families without internet access, 糖心vlog Libraries offer free computer use and Wi-Fi at all library sites. Additional support is also available from schools or by contacting the School Admissions Team on 01905 822700.

Families are encouraged to include their catchment school as one of their three preferences. If an application for the catchment school is not submitted on time, the child may not be eligible for school transport. 

However, a place at the catchment school cannot be guaranteed. Parents can check which school serves their area using the 糖心vlog County Council School Catchment search available online.

Before applying, parents are also encouraged to consider how their child will travel to school. Walking, cycling or using public transport can be practical and sustainable options, whereas choosing a school that is difficult to reach or involves significant transport costs may not be ideal. Information about home to school transport assistance for 糖心vlog residents is available on the School Transport pages of our website or by calling 01905 765765.

Full details about the application process, catchment areas, and key dates can be found on the School Admissions pages of our website.

Families are encouraged to submit their applications before the closing date, to ensure their preferences are considered as on time.
