Schools, education and childcare Apply for a year 7 secondary place for September 2026

Apply for a place

Applications for year 7 places for September 2026 opened on 1 July 2025

The deadline for on-time applications is 31 October 2025.

Applying late means you have less chance of getting your preferred school and that we may not send your offer out till after the usual date - 2 March 2026.

This is because we offer places to on-time applications first, and places at your preferred school may have already been taken by on-time applicants.
