Apply online - information for parents

Westminster City Council is working with the 32 other London boroughs and the London Grid for Learning to enable parents to apply for school places online. The benefits of applying online include:

• a quicker process - you will be able to track the progress of your application
• faster feedback on the results of your application
• Less paper
• the opportunity to apply from any location with Internet access, 24hrs a day, 7 days a week, until the closing date

How do I apply online?

As with paper applications, you will only be able to apply for a school place online from September 2011.   For secondary school places (Year 7) you can apply online from 1st September 2011 to 31st October 2011 and for primary school places (reception class) from 1st September 2011 to 15th January 2012.
