Year 6: Admission to secondary school

If you have a child who is currently in Year 6, please ensure that your application for Secondary School (Year 7 for September 2025) is submitted to your home local authority by the national closing date, 31st October 2024.

Bracknell Forest residents can apply online at www.bracknell-forest.gov.uk/applyforsecondary, or a paper form can be requested from the School Admissions Team.

Applicants must apply to their home local authority no matter what school they wish to apply for.

• If your child has an EHCP, then their admission to secondary school will be dealt with by their SEN Officer.
• If your child is undergoing an EHCP needs assessment or EHCP is not yet finalised, then you should still ensure an on-time application is submitted to School Admissions in the interim. This can be withdrawn, if required, at a later date.

If you are not applying for a school place as you have made alternative arrangements such as private or home education, then you should contact School Admissions to confirm your arrangements.
