If your child will be starting primary, junior or secondary school next year, it's time to kickstart the application process.

You can apply for up to three schools, with the option to put your most preferred school as your first choice. It’s highly recommended that you fill out all three preferences for the best outcome.

Important deadlines:

Secondary school application: 31 October 2024

Primary and junior school application: 15 January 2025

A spokesperson for Swindon Borough Council said: “Please visit our website:www.swindon.gov.uk/schoolplaces to submit an application for each child starting primary, junior, or secondary school. 

If you would like assistance with your application or have any questions, there are a few drop-in sessions coming up where the admissions team will be on-hand to support you and answer any questions:

• Tuesday, 1 October, Town Centre Library, 10am - 2pm

• Wednesday, 11 December, North Swindon Library, 10.30am - 1.30pm

• Wednesday, 8 January, Town Centre Library, 10am - 2pm
