Starting in Reception class – September 2015

[Gulee]

If your child will have their 5th birthday between 1 September 2015 and
31 August 2016 you need to apply for a reception class place now.
The deadline to apply for a reception class place for entry in September 2015 is 15 January 2015.

If your child was born between 1 September 2010 and 31 August 2011, you will need to apply for a Reception class place in primary school for September 2015.

If your child lives in Newham you will need to apply through the Council. But if your child lives outside Newham, but you want him or her to go to school in Newham, you will need to apply through the local authority in the borough you live in.

Remember, you must always apply for a place, even if your child:

already goes to the nursery at the school you prefer
has an older brother or sister at the school you prefer
lives in the catchment area for the school you prefer.
