How to prepare your child in-year admission to avoid disappointment?

While moving to your new home, getting your child to study at a preferred school nearby is always an important matter. If you are facing this issue then you should continue to read.

We know that parents are under pressure when searching for a list of preferred schools near your new home. It could be quite frustrating in the end if your child does not offer a place at your preferred school. One way to avoid this is to start your school search early in advance and gather all the information especially on the number of spaces available.

Although the best way to find out if a school has space available is to contact the school directly, it should only be done when you can confirm the location of your new home. Hence, while you are still searching for your new home, our platform provides up-to-date data about the number of pupils and school capacity. Which allow you to estimate the subscription. If the number of pupils is much higher than the school capacity, you should expect a low chance that spaces are available.

You should also know that your local council must have to find a school for your child by the time they turn five. This does not necessarily mean that the school will be near you or located within your authority but you can rest assured that places offered will be for school as close as possible to the child's home address. So your child won’t be left without a place. 

Creating a free personal account with British School Portal will allow you to browse through the schools easily on a Map-view. The school's profile and data such as school performance can be listed out for you to compare.
