Late Applications
If you submit your application without a good reason after the deadline, your application will be treated as late. This may affect the possibility of your child being offered a place at one of your preferred schools. Please click here if you are likely to be unable to make an on-time application.
Deferred entry to school
Parents and carers may choose to seek a place outside their child’s chronological (correct) year group. Full details of this are available in the School Admissions Policy.
Waiting Lists
Surrey County Council manages our waiting list for Reception - Year 6. If you have made an application for Reception - Year 6, you will need to contact Surrey Admissions directly for information on where your child is on the waiting list or if there are spaces in the year that you have applied for.
For more information about adding your child to our waiting list please visit Surrey County Councils website Here
Your Child’s Position on the Waiting List
Your child's position on a waiting list can go down as well as up. This will occur if other children are added to the list because they have greater priority against the school's admission criteria.
To find out the position of your child on the Waiting List, you can call Surrey County Council on 0300 200 1004.
