Lower, primary and middle
Parents have slightly longer to apply for school places for children who are due to start school, or transfer to middle school.

Children born between 1 September 2017 and 31 August 2018 are due to start school in September 2022. Parents applying for their children to start either a lower or primary school must apply before 15 January 2022, even if their child already attends a nursery or pre-school on the school site.

Parents applying for a place for their child at a middle school must also apply before 15 January 2022, even if the child already attends a feeder school and lives in the catchment area.
