Time is running out for parents and carers to submit applications for children starting school in the next academic year.
The deadline to apply for a place at a º£½Ç»»ÆÞ Primary, First, or Middle school is 15 January 2025, with applications closing at midnight.
Councillor David Chambers, Cabinet Member for Education at º£½Ç»»ÆÞ County Council said: "Starting or moving to the next stage of school is a significant milestone for children, and we want to ensure a smooth and seamless process.
“Last year, we’re pleased that over 95% of children starting school, received their first-choice school. Meeting the application deadline is crucial to secure a place for your child, and I would encourage all parents and carers to make sure their application is sent in time.
Applying online is quick, convenient, and secure. The Council’s School Admissions website is accessible 24/7, allowing parents and carers to make updates or changes until midnight on the closing date.
