Junior Admissions 2017

For the attention of all Haringey Infant and Junior schools (including Infant and Junior schools in federations)
There is a statutory requirement for all infant and junior schools (including infant and junior schools in federations) to participate in central co-ordination for admission to junior school. As a PAN London co-ordinated process, parent/carers from all London authorities are able to apply online (external link) for a place at a Haringey junior school. The application deadline is 15 January 2017 and the offer day will be Tuesday 18 April 2017 (the nearest working day to 16 April).
 
Infant schools
We would be grateful if you could please remind all your parents in year 2 that they must complete an infant to junior transfer application form to be considered for a place at a junior school (both inside and outside of Haringey).

Applicants who are not applying for a junior school because they prefer their child to attend a primary school will be required to complete an in-year application form at the end of the summer term. We will ensure that these children have a primary school place for the start of September 2017. Alternatively, these applicants can complete an in-year application for an immediate transfer to a primary school.

Junior schools – own admitting authority schools (voluntary aided)
You will receive a list of applicants on 9 February 2017 who have expressed a preference for your school for September 2017. You will be asked to rank these applicants in accordance with your admissions criteria and return the list by no later than 24 February 2017.

Any supporting documentation we receive will be sent to you immediately for your consideration.  

IMPORTANT: Application deadline and late applications
The deadline for applying for a junior school is 15 January 2017.  Applications received after the 15 January 2017 will be classed as late and considered after all other applications that were received on-time. For example, a child applying for a place from a neighbouring authority such as Islington will be considered before a late applicant who currently attends a Haringey infant school.

Please help us by encouraging parents to apply online (external link).There are a number of benefits of applying online:

  • It is secure and easy
  • Applicants receive an acknowledgement email when they submit their application

  • Results of the application can be viewed online on national offer day – 18 April 2017
