Families of children in Year 6 – it is time to start thinking about applying for a secondary school place for September 2025! Applications open from the 12th September but there’s no advantage to applying early, so you have plenty of time to attend Open Evenings before making an application. However, for the best chance of a place at your preferred school, you do need to ensure that you have applied, either online (and submitted your application), or by returning a Secondary Application Form by the national deadline of 31st October 2024.
