The Council is grateful for the very helpful cooperation of Governing Bodies, Head Teachers, parents and the Diocese of Southwark. It will enable us to meet our commitment to educate all the children who need a place in local schools.
The admissions process is well underway and, as published in the 2009 School Admissions Booklet, families will be sent a letter giving the outcome of their child’s application by first class post on Wednesday 25 March.
The School Admissions team is unable to provide any information about individual applications until this letter has been received.
