About the Book

- Worried about how to secure the best possible school place for your child? - Unsure how the school allocation system works? - Need to do your school place application but don't know where to start? - Worried about increasing demand for school places and how this affects your child's chance for a place at a school you want? - Getting the school application wrong can cost parents the place at the school they wanted that they may have otherwise been offered -In 2015, some areas of England had up to 39% of children not getting their first choice school. With this level of demand, it is vital to ensure that you maximise your chance of a successful application. School Applications Explained will help anyone who is doing an application for a School Place in England. - The school allocation system is explained clearly and simply so that readers understand how it works which will give them an immediate advantage. - Gives a checklist of tasks that parents can work through as they do their application to ensure nothing is missed out - Explains the most common mistakes that parents make which can make the difference between gaining a place at a school parents want or a place at a school they have never heard of which could be miles away. - Gives vital information on how a place at a preferable school can be secured after National Offer Day if parents are unhappy with the school place they have been offered. This book was written because the author keeps seeing parents who come to appeals having not secured a place at a school they wanted because they didn't understand how school places were allocated. The book explains the school allocation system, explains what research parents should do before they apply for a school place and advises what they can do to maximise the chance of a securing a place at a school that they would be happy to accept. It also explains the assumptions that parents often incorrectly make that can mean they do not secure a place at a school they would be happy with. Applying for a place for a child to start Primary and Secondary School as well as information on applying for an In-Year transfer are covered in the book. There is also an introductory chapter on Summer Born children. The information in the book is laid out clearly, with each chapter having a summary and a helpful glossary of terms used at the back of the book. The book is one of the most up to date available as it covers the new School Admissions Code 2014.
About the Author: The author has extensive experience working in School Appeals for a number of years, having been responsible for the overall running and co-ordination of the School Appeals Service of a large Local Authority as well as working with Academy Trusts to set up and run their Appeal and Admission Services. This is the second book from the author, the first being School Appeals Explained.
