Make an in-year school application

Please read all information below before starting your application.

You can use this portal to apply for your child to join a school outside of the normal admissions rounds for schools that currently use a Centrally Managed Application (CMA) form. Please check the Directory of Surrey schools to confirm if the school you wish to apply for uses the CMA. 

Please make sure you have read the information on our website and have all the documents you will need before starting your in-year application.

You must include two proof of address documents, any Supplementary Information forms (if required by any of your preferences as set out in the Directory of Surrey schools). If your child has recently arrived, or is due to arrive in the UK you must also include proof of arrival to the UK (if applicable). If you are unable to provide the required documents, please contact 0300 200 1004 for further advice.

You can apply for in-year admission up to four school weeks before the place is needed. We will not usually process applications earlier than this except for members of the Armed Services who are being relocated to the area and Crown servants returning from overseas, who can apply up to four months in advance of a move.

If your child is currently taught outside of their normal year group, you will not be able to use the on-line service, please call 0300 200 1004 for an application form. Please ensure you have read our Guidance on the education of children out of their chronological year group.
