MID-YEAR ADMISSIONS from 1st April 2022
Applications for school places for outside the normal admissions
As you will be aware, Essex County Council (ECC) handled all In Year (mid-year) applications for infants, juniors and primary school places in Essex.
Northlands Primary School handle all our own Mid-Year applications (sometimes called In-Year applications). Mid-Year applications are any application for a school place made to a year group, apart from September admissions to Reception.
For applications into existing year groups, a place will be offered when a number of pupils in the relevant year group is below the admission number for that year group.
If you are interested in changing your child's current school to Northlands Primary School and Nursery, please complete the application form below.
* Please return the completed application form to admissions@northlandsprimary.essex.sch.uk or alternatively return to Northlands Primary School and Nursery Winifred Road Pitsea SS13 3JQ
Once your application has been submitted and received, you will receive a reply within 15 school days.
Please note: if a mid-year application is received during a school holiday period, we will respond as soon as possible when the school reopens.
Please DO NOT apply to the school if your child is due to start Reception or Secondary School as this process still needs to be completed through Essex County Council.
If your child is not offered a place at your preferred school, you can appeal against the decision. Following the link below will give you more information about the appeals process and timescale.
