Apply Online

Applications open on 1 September 2023 for secondary school applications for entry in September 2024. The closing date is 31 October 2023 at 11:59pm.

It is really important that you apply on time. If you apply late you are less likely to get offered a place at any of your preferred schools. Applications received after the 31 October 2023 will be classed as late applications and will not be processed until after the offer of places on 1 March 2024.

Remember to list six different secondary schools

If your child attends any of the following all-through schools in Year 6; Ark Kings Academy, Ark Victoria Academy, Bournville School, King Solomon International Business School, Washwood Heath Academy or Waverley School, do not list the school as one of your six preferences. Your child will automatically move up from Year 6 to Year 7 in September 2024 and by listing the school as a preference you are wasting one of your preferences.

Important: Ensure you include details of any siblings attending your preferred school(s) in the field (box) provided for sibling details. Sibling details included in the incorrect field (box), such as in reasons for preference. Will not be counted and may prevent you from gaining a place at your preferred school. If you fill in the online application incorrectly, you are liable for not completing the form correctly, not School Admissions and Fair Access Service.
