Families who have children due to start primary school in September 2026 are being reminded to apply for a school place now.

Starting school can be an anxious time for families, so the applications process has been made as straightforward as possible.

If your child was born born between 1 September 2021 and 31 August 2022 you must apply for their school place before Thursday 15 January 2026.

There is only a short period of time left to make your application and parents who don’t apply could miss out on a place at their preferred school.

You can contact the School Admissions Team on 01724 297000 or admissionstoschool@northlincs.gov.uk if you need advice.
