In year/casual admissions
For
parents and carers who wish for their child to join our school in another year
group other than Reception class/Early years, this is called an "in
year/casual admission".
An application must be made to the school by submitting Medway's Local Authority In-Year/Casual Application Form to the school alongside our Supplementary Information Form. (SIF)
Parents/carers will be notified of the application outcome with 15
days of receipt of the application forms.
Parents/carers who have been refused a place at the school for
their child have the right to appeal.
The Appeal Form needs to be completed and sent back into the school.
