How to register a child for school in maryland

If you don’t want your child to go to your catchment school you can of course put other schools down on your application form, but there are no guarantees you will get the place you’re hoping for.

How to apply for a primary school place

The easiest way is to apply online.

Your council’s website should have a link to the application form and it’s a fairly simple process. Alternatively, you can give them a call and ask for a paper copy to be sent to you to fill in.

If you don’t know which council you need to apply through you can enter your postcode on the Government’s primary admissions website and it will take you to the correct council’s page.

The application usually allows you to note down three ‘preferences’ – note their careful use of the word ‘preferences’, rather than ‘choices’.

There are no guarantees at all – you are simply being asked what you would prefer. You’ll also need to fill in a lot of information about your child and where you live – you may need a council tax form to hand for this.
