Hi everyone,

I’m in the process of applying for secondary schools for my son and was looking for a bit of advice please.

I’ve already submitted my 3 choices of schools to my Local Authority. I am 100% happy with our 1st and 2nd choice (both faith schools and require supplementary forms which I have submitted directly to both schools) but I am really unsure about our 3rd choice school and keep changing my mind.

I have changed my 3rd choice of school on the online application form with the Local Authority once already (which is possible before the deadline day of 31st Oct 2022) however does anyone know if I have to resubmit the supplementary forms to the schools I have in 1st and 2nd choice even though these have not been amended in my application?

Does anyone know exactly how the process works? Do the local LA’s inform the schools after each application has been submitted (even if those choices can be changed multiple times before deadline day) or do schools only receive choices after the deadline day has passed?

Any help would be much appreciated x

No, you don't need to resubmit supplementary forms. The first and second choice schools won't be notified of the list of applicants until after applications close.
