Transferring from primary to secondary school is an important and exciting step in your child’s education. Children usually start secondary school at the start of September following their eleventh birthday.

Children born between 1 September 2013 and 31 August 2014 will start secondary school from September 2025. Parents need to apply for a Year 7 place by 31 October 2024.

Children with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) must also apply by 31 October 2024.

You are strongly advised to apply to four local schools including your nearest or catchment area school.
