Pupils transferring to upper school in September 2026

Parents of pupils in Year 8 who would like their child to attend an upper school from September 2026 must apply for a place. 

When to apply

The closing date for parents to apply for an upper school place for their child has now passed, however you can still apply for an upper school place for your child.

This portal must only be used to submit applications to transfer to upper school in September 2026 (for pupils currently in Year 8).

If you are submitting the form to change your preference(s) and we are able to allocate one of the schools you have stated on your form, the school your child was originally allocated will immediately be withdrawn and re-allocated to another child.

How to apply

After you have applied

The outcome for late applications and changes of preference for the upper school transfer will be sent to parents when a decision has been received from the relevant council.
