Admissions

Applying for Year 7 for September 2025

You can submit your school application from 9am on 2nd September 2024. Applications close on 31st October 2024 at 5pm.

To apply for a secondary school place you will need to:

• Apply through Medway Council if you live in Medway
• Apply through your own local authority if you live outside of Medway
• Use the child’s main address
• Complete an application for each child if you’re applying for more than one such as twins. They will not count as a sibling link for a place.

If your child is due to start secondary school in September 2025, the deadline for submitting an on-time appeal is 28th March 2025. If you want to appeal after that date, please submit your form as soon as possible. Appeals submitted after 28th March might not be heard at the same time and those submitted on-time.

For applications made in the normal admission round, appeals must be heard within 40 school days of the deadline for lodging appeals. For late applications, appeals should be heard within 40 schools days from the deadline for lodging appeals where possible, or within 30 schools days of the appeals being lodged.
