When do families find out about secondary school places?

Families in the UK typically find out about secondary school places for their children in March. This is when local authorities send out offer letters to parents informing them of the school their child has been allocated to.

It is important for families to be aware of the deadlines and procedures for secondary school applications in order to ensure that their child is placed in a school that meets their preferences and needs.

While the process of applying for secondary school can be stressful and competitive, there are resources and support available to help families navigate the system and make informed decisions about their child’s education.
