Applying for a Reception school place?

Primary schools

Forms received after 15th January 2017 but before 24th March 2017

Preference forms received by Liverpool City Council (LCC) after the closing date will be considered as late applications unless there is a valid reason for the application being late e.g. change of address, change in a medical condition or exceptional circumstances.

LCC will continue to process late applications and send the information to schools and other local authorities. However, schools and local authorities may have late application policies which means that applications received on time will be given priority over late applications.

Forms received after 24th March 2017

• Late applications with a valid reason will be placed on a waiting list if the school is oversubscribed.
• Late applications without a valid reason will be considered after those applications considered on time.
• If the school has places available the child will be offered a place at that school.
