Online applications

 

Website https://www.essex.gov.uk/apply-for-a-secondary-school-place

 

Copy and paste the above into your web browser.

 

You will need to apply for an online account enabling you to make an application, please follow the online process.

 

Secondary schools at this point would normally organise an Open Day for pupils wanting to apply for next year but as we already know, this is far from a normal year. Please could you check with the relevant schools on their website to gain information on the process for this.

 

All applications received after 31^st October will be treated as late and will only be processed after all the

on-time applications.

 

You are less likely to get a place at one of your preferred schools if you apply late.
