How and when to apply for a Reception place

When can you apply for a Reception place for September 2024? 
 
 
 

If you would like to apply for a space at Hadleigh Infants and Nursery school for a child starting Reception in September 2024, you will need to make a formal application to Essex County Council for a school place.

  

Parents can apply via the website www.essex.gov.uk/admissions where you can also find information regarding the application process. 

 

The admission round is between 6 November 2023 and 15 January 2024, for parents of children to apply for a Reception place. 

 

It is parent responsibility to apply for a school place at the correct times. You are less likely to get a place at one of your preferred schools if you apply late.
