Is your child due to transfer to a secondary school in September 2012?
Most children who are already in school have a Unique Identification Number (UID). Providing you live in Bath & North East Somerset and your child currently attends a maintained Junior or Primary school in Bath & North East Somerset, you will receive a letter in September 2011. The letter contains your child's UID and information about the transfer process from their current school. The UID number can then be used to make an application on line as this makes the application process easier for you. You can make your on line transfer application for a Secondary school place from 1st September 2011 up to 31st October 2011.
Please note that with effect from 1 November 2011 you will no longer be able to make an online transfer application for a Secondary school place in September 2012 as this facility has now closed.
Applications must be made to the Local Authority in which you live even if you are wanting to be considered for a place at a school situation within a different Local Authority area.
The information booklet for parents can also be viewed from the links on this page. If you prefer, if you are a resident of Bath & North East Somerset, you can make your application by completing the Secondary application form which you can return by post or fax. This form can be downloaded and printed from the links on this page. Alternatively you can request a copy of the form and booklet from your child's current school. You can also phone 01225 394312 and ask for a copy to be sent out to you.
Please remember that if you are making a paper application you must return your completed application form by 31st October 2011 for your child to be considered for a Secondary school place.
