The arrangements for applying for school places vary depending upon the age of the child and the types of school required.

The likelihood of being offered a place at your preferred school depends on a number of things, for example, whether the school has a vacancy and, if there is no vacancy, whether your child has any priority on the school's waiting list.

You can apply online on the Your London website, instead of using a paper application for both primary and secondary school places. Before applying for a place you may wish to do some research and the information on the following pages is designed to help you with this.

If you need, or prefer, to speak with an expert, please telephone the Council's Contact Centre.
