Time to choose your child’s secondary school

Parents with Year 6 children are reminded that they have just two weeks left to apply for a secondary school place for them.

The closing date for applications is 31 October for anyone intending to start secondary school next autumn.

The online admissions system is the quickest and easiest way of applying for a place, and this can be found at Secondary school admissions - Bury Council

Any applications received after 31 October will be treated as late applications and will not be considered until after all the on-time applications have been allocated.

Parents will be informed next March which secondary school place their child has been allocated.
