Primary Schools only
The application deadline is 15 January 2022 and National offer day will be 19 April 2022.
Please can you 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.
Haringey is also arranging some more online talks about applying for a Reception place. Delivered via Microsoft Teams or Zoom, these also offer an opportunity for Q&A sessions after the presentation. See separate news item. Dates will be available on our website and the promotion leaflet will been sent to all primary schools.
Preferences
We will let you know how many reception preferences you have received (including from those applicants resident outside Haringey) on 9 February 2022. 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 2022, 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 18 February 2022 to ensure that we are able to meet our PAN London deadlines.
Offers
We will send you a final offer list before 19 April 2022. 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@haringey.gov.uk (Reception) or Imogen Rush, Imogen.Rush@haringey.gov.uk (Junior).
