Changing primary schools

A change of School is not always in the best of interests of a child. However, if this cannot be avoided and if you live locally, you are strongly advised not to remove your child from his/her current School until you have secured an alternative school place for him/her. This will avoid your child being out of School for any period before he/she is admitted to the new School. 

Where to apply:

All primary school transfer applications must be made directly to the primary schools. A full list of primary schools can be viewed using the 'Find schools in Croydon' link.

Should you experience difficulty in locating a school with an available place in your child's year group, Croydon Council's Contact Centre may be able to help.
