N.B.
Procedure for In-Year Admissions Applications for in-year places are co-ordinated by the Admissions Team at Northamptonshire County Council. Applications can be made on-line at http://www.northamptonshire.gov.uk or by telephoning 0300 126 1000. Parents are welcome to contact the school prior to making an application as we recognise that changing schools for students who have already made a start on their secondary education can be daunting.
We do our best to match courses already started, and Personal Tutors and Year Heads monitor settling in and offer support as necessary. The Admissions Team send details of applications to the school and contact parents to let them know whether or not there is an available place for their daughter. If the application is unsuccessful, parents have the right to make an appeal. Further information about the procedure for in-year applications is available from the Admissions Team at the school, by telephoning 01536 513063 or by e-mail at [email protected]
