Key admission dates

Admission dates are important deadlines that you'll need to keep in mind. If you miss these secondary admission dates, your chances of being offered a place at a preferred school will be reduced.

You will need to know:

  • when admissions are open
  • the deadline for submitting your application 
  • the date you find out if you've got your place

If you miss any of these dates, you’ll lower the chance of getting a place at your preferred school.

The application closing date for secondary school applications is 31 October 2024.
