Timetable for 2024 Year 7 Intake:
ApplicaTion Deadline: 31 October 2023
- Deadline for on-time applications via the Local Authority's application process. (Applications submitted after this date will be treated as late applications).
National Offer Day: 1 March 2024
- Online applicants will receive an email from the Local Authority during the evening, informing them of the result of their application.
- Letters are also sent out on this day, by first class post.
- If your child did not qualify for a place at one or more of your higher preference schools, your letter will include information about the Waiting List process and what to do next.
- You can find out your position on school Waiting Lists by contacting the Local Authority Admissions Team.
- The Local Authority administers the Turing House Waiting List in three bands (as described in the notes section of our Admissions Policy). You may be wait-listed in more than one band, so you can ask the admissions team for your position in each.
Acceptance Deadline: 15 March 2024
- This is the date by which parents must accept or decline their initial offer.
- A further wave of offers is usually sent out a few weeks after this date, to applicants who remain on the Waiting List for one or more higher preference schools.
- Information about your Waiting List position can be requested from the Local Authority's admissions team from Tuesday 2 April 2024 onwards.
- Each wave of offers results in parents giving up previously accepted offers, so there are usually Waiting List movements between March and September.
Appeals Deadline: 15th April 2024
- This is the closing date for receipt of appeals.
- Appeals are made through the Local Authority's Appeals team
Appeals HEard: May/June 2024

- Appellants must submit any additional evidence by 5 working days before their appeal hearing.

- Appeals lodged after 15th April will be heard after all appeals that were received by the appeals deadline.
