Can my child get a secondary school place if our legal status in the UK is uncertain?

Any child currently living in the UK between the ages of 5 and 16 can access education by law, so your child would be able to get a secondary school place whether you have legal status in the UK or not. You may not be able to access public funds however, for example for free school travel or free school meals. This would depend on your immigration status.

If you are in the UK on a short-term basis (three months or less) only, then the Admissions Team would not process your application.
