Cornwall Parents: Secure Your Child’s Future – Apply for Primary School Places Now!

Don’t Miss the Deadline: Act Before January 15!

Time is Running Out! Secure Your Child’s School Place

Parents in Cornwall, are you a parent or caregiver with a little one born between September 1, 2019, and August 31, 2020? If so, this is a crucial announcement for you. The clock is ticking, and the deadline for primary school applications is fast approaching. You have until Monday, January 15, to submit your application for a reception place starting in September 2024.

Nursery Attendance Doesn’t Guarantee a Spot!

Here’s a critical point to remember: even if your child attends your preferred school’s nursery or pre-school, it won’t automatically secure them a place in reception. You must still complete the application process. It’s a small but essential step to ensure your child’s educational journey begins on the right foot.

Expert Advice and Support at Your Fingertips

Cllr Barbara Ellenbroek, the cabinet member for children and families at Cornwall Council, emphasises the significance of choosing the right school for your child. She urges parents to consider multiple options and get their applications in before the January 15 deadline. The School Admissions Team is here to provide guidance, support, and answers to any questions you may have.

Don’t Risk Missing Out – Act Now!

Remember, missing the application deadline increases the risk of not securing a spot at your preferred school. Late applications are processed after those submitted on time, potentially causing disappointment. So, to ensure your child’s educational aspirations are met, submit your application before January 15.
