Academy applications through local authority

The closing date for late applications and changes of preferences for 14-19 Academies for entry in September 2025, was 31 July 2025.

If you did not submit your late application or change of preferences by 31 July 2025, you must now apply directly to your preferred schools using the In-Year application form. Do not use this form if your child has an Education Health Care Plan (EHCP). For children with an EHCP, visit the SENAR Local Offer website.
