Schools online admissions

Please read the following before proceeding to the online admissions system.

You should only use this site to apply for schools if you are a Brighton & Hove resident or are moving to the area.

If you are applying for schools in this area and live outside Brighton & Hove, you should apply through your own local authority.

The online format of the preference form is not identical to the paper version.  If you prefer, you can download the paper schools admission form, print it off, complete and return it. Alternatively contact the team to be sent a paper form. In all cases, please refer to the school admissions booklet.

Please do not leave your application until the closing date.  If the site is unavailable due to technical difficulties you may not be able to apply online.

The closing date for Secondary School Admissions is 31 October 2012 at 3pm, and for Infant, Junior and Primary School Admissions is 15 January 2013 at 3pm.
