Across the city, a range of excellent secondary schools are working together supporting pupils on their journey from Year 7 to Year 11.
Watch our quick guide to the admissions process and find out how to apply for a school place for your child.
It’s time to apply for a place for the pupils starting Year 7 in September 2018. Parents and carers of current Year 6 pupils are encouraged to find out about the admissions process and visit schools now.
Parents can benefit from looking around as many schools as possible, in the local catchment area and beyond, to see what’s on offer and compare the different options.
The list of secondary school open days is available and schools also welcome prospective parents to arrange visits at other times too.
The deadline to apply for a secondary school place is 31 October. Applying online at the council’s is the quickest and easiest way to submit your preferences.
