Applications are open between 1 September and 31 October 2024 (national closing date). There is no advantage in applying early, all applications made by the national closing date are treated equally.
If you live in Leeds, you apply online at www.leeds.gov.uk/apply.We will work with other local authorities if you ask for schools in their area.
If you don’t live in Leeds, you must apply to your home local authority (whoever empties your bins) but you can still ask for Leeds schools.
There is a YouTube video which explains the key application steps to help you make the best application for your child. You can watch it at: https://youtu.be/WRU1SrS7iJE
If you have any questions, you can contact Leeds City Council by phone 0113 222 4414 or by email: startingsecondary@leeds.gov.uk
