Secondary Admissions 2021
Dear Parent/ Guardian,
Admission to Secondary School - September 2021
In September 2021, your child is due to transfer to Secondary School. In order to secure a place for your child, you will need to complete an application online.
Please visit the Caerphilly.gov website, search for School Admissions and click to ‘Apply for a place at school’. The actual web address is as follows:- www.caerphilly.gov.uk/schooladmissions
You must complete the form by the 23rd October 2020. Please note, you must include your council tax number on the form. You will find this number on your council tax statement in the top right hand corner.
Your child’s attendance at a feeder Primary/ Junior school does not provide automatic entry into your preferred Secondary school. It is your home address that will determine their catchment school. If your child resides at more than one address (i.e. if there are shared custody arrangements in place), then the address at which the child spends most of the school week should be used.
You can refer to the Authority’s Starting School Booklet for further guidance if required which is available on the following website www.caerphilly.gov.uk/startingschoolbooklet
If you should require any assistance with completing the form, or have any queries, please contact a member of the School Admissions Team on 01443 864896/ 01443 864897.
Yours sincerely,
Emma Strathdee
