In Year Transfers

If you are moving into Leeds or want to change schools in Leeds, you need to make a school transfer – often called an in-year application.

This includes

• applications for a place in reception after the start of term in September
• applications for a place in all other year groups (year 1-6)

Moving schools can be a difficult experience for a child. You should always speak to your child's current school before trying to move to see what support they can offer you.

We are part of the Leeds coordinated in-year application scheme.

You can apply for a place online using the Leeds in-year application form at Before you move schools (leeds.gov.uk). You can apply for places at our school and other Leeds schools.

If you have moved house, you’ll need to submit evidence of the house move at the same time you make your online application. You can find out what you need to provide on the above website.

We have to offer places by applying our admission policy criteria to your child’s application.   Leeds City Council will contact you with our decision no later than 15 school days from when you apply. If they cannot offer your child a place at our school, they will

• add your child to our waiting list in case a place becomes available during the school year   
• send you a letter to explain the reasons we cannot offer a place (usually that we are full) and tell you how you can appeal.

Our waiting lists are kept until the end of each school year. You will need to make a new application if you want to be on the waiting list for the following school year.
