Primary schools only
The application deadline is 15 January 2017 and the offer day will be Tuesday 18 April 2017 (the nearest working day to 16 April).
Please can you put a note of these deadlines in one of your upcoming school newsletters to remind parents/carers with children in your nursery (where applicable) to apply on time and also to alert families with children already on roll who have younger siblings. We have a small number of families every year who forget to make a reception application for their second or subsequent child or a Junior transfer application for their infant school child. With your help and support in publicising these deadlines and the imperative of making an on-time application we can minimise the number of families who don’t secure a school place at one of their preferred schools.
Preferences
We will let you know how many reception preferences you have received (including from those applicants resident outside Haringey) on 9 February 2017. If you would like to know how many applicants have applied online (not on paper) you can find this out now by logging on to the online admissions system (external link)
On 9 February 2017, we will also send you a list to verify sibling applications (community and voluntary controlled schools only) or send you a full list of applicants to rank in the order of your admissions criteria (academies and voluntary aided schools only). It is very important that you return these lists by no later than 24 February 2017 to ensure that we are able to meet our PAN London deadlines.
Offers
We will send you a final offer list before 18 April 2017. After offer day we will continue to send you updated lists as places are declined and new offers are made.
For any queries on any of the above, please contact Lynne Tighe, Lynne.Tighe@harinegy.gov.uk
