If you cannot mould yourself entirely as you would wish, how can you expect other people to be entirely to your liking?

Time to apply for autumn 2017 secondary school places



There is just a week for parents and carers to submit their application to secure their child’s place at a Suffolk secondary school for September 2017.  

Getting the application in on time really does give you the best chance of securing a place at the child’s preferred school. The deadline is Monday October 31st.

Just because you live very close to a particular school you cannot make the assumption that this will mean that your child will secure a place there, particularly if it is a popular establishment.  Filling in  a form, on line or in hard copy  is vital.  This is due to the fact the popular schools are often requested by parents living out of catchment, and their applications could take precedence over those living closer when no form has been filled in.

If possible parents are asked to select more than one school in their application.

More information on the process can be found HERE.
