Co-ordinated Admission Arrangements - Transferring to Junior School

Starting primary or infant school, and later moving onto junior school are some of the most important events in any child's life. At this time Parents/carers are naturally concerned to do the best for their children, but many feel uncertain about what to do. 

The aim of this booklet is to make it as easy as possible for parents to understand the procedures involved. The booklets go into a lot of detail to explain the rules and procedures the Council has to follow to ensure that the system works as fairly as possible.

This document is in PDF (portable document file) format. You need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your machine in order to read it. You can download this file from our ' Downloads' page.

In total, there are 15 junior schools.  Click on here for a detailed list of primary schools in North East Lincolnshire.

Applications for admissions into junior schools at normal times of admission or transfer are submitted on our application forms Common Application Form (Infants to Junior) and for casual admission or transfer at other times Casual Applicaton/Transfer Form (Primary) .  Most parents prefer their children to go the local catchment school. Sometimes, however, parents prefer a school outside their own catchment area, but may find that there are no places are available.   These web-pages contain a summary of the information parents need to understand about the admission policies and appeal process.

The Local Authority will issue information packs on how to apply for a junior school on 12 January 2007. The schools will issue packs to all Year 2 pupils. Alternatively you can apply online at http://emsonline.nelincs.gov.uk/admit_transfer/at_welcome.asp.   
(only between 12 January 2007 and 2 March 2007).  The closing date for applications is 2 March 2007 and you will be informed of the result of your application on 20 April 2007.
