If you're moving into Leeds or want to change schools in Leeds, you need to make
a school transfer – often called an in-year application. Moving schools can be a
difficult experience for a child. You should always speak to your child's
current school before trying to move to see what support they can offer you How
to apply for an in-year place We are part of the Leeds coordinated in-year
application scheme. This means you can apply for a place online using the Leeds
in-year application form at Before you move schools (leeds.gov.uk). You can
apply for places at our school and most other Leeds schools at the same time on
this form. If you have moved house, please upload evidence of the house move
with the online application. You can find out what you need to provide on the
above website. We have to offer places by applying our admission policy criteria
to your child’s application and we will contact you with our decision about
offering you a place. We will tell you our decision no later than 15 school days
from when you apply. If we cannot offer you a place, we will write to you to
explain the reasons, explain how you can appeal and add your child to our
waiting list in case a place becomes free. Our waiting lists are kept until end
of each school year. You will need to make a new application if you want to be
on the waiting list for the following school year. Appeals If you are not
offered a place at the school you requested, you will have the right of appeal.
The appeal panel is independent of the school and council and the decision is
legally binding. Before you appeal you: should accept any place that you have
been offered in case your appeal is not successful should think about why you
are appealing and check if it's likely to be successful could read the advice
for appealing school places on GOV.UK could get independent advice on making an
appeal from a charity Leeds City Council arranges our appeals and you can find
the appeal form at School appeals (leeds.gov.uk) If you are applying for a
Reception place for September 2023, you need to submit your appeal form by the
above deadline to ensure the appeal will be heard before the summer holidays.
Appeals for Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 – these classes are limited to 30
pupils per teacher by law. This means that appeals for these places are less
likely to be successful. If our school refuses your child a place because of
this limit and you want to appeal, you will need to make an infant class size
appeal. You can see if your reasons are likely to be successful by reading the
Department for Education's information about infant class size appeals. Other
appeals - You can appeal because you want your child to attend a particular
school. These are successful if the panel agree that the reasons for your appeal
outweigh the school's decision not to admit any more children. Wanting your
child to go to a school because you think it is the best one in the area is not
likely to convince the panel that your child should get a place there Look at
