How do I apply for a place at a school outside the City of Leicester?
If you want to apply for a secondary school place in another authority and live within the Leicester City boundary you can apply online but still need to apply through us and we will forward your application to the relevant authority. When can I use the online system? Leicester City Council’s online system will be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week from 1st September 2009. It will, however, only be live up until the closing date of midnight 23rd October 2009. After this date you will have to complete a paper application which will be treated as a late application. Will my details and those of my child be secure? Yes, the system has a series of security procedures which will prevent anyone seeing information they are not entitled to see. If your child is on roll at a Leicester City primary school and will be transferring from primary to secondary school, a unique identification number (UID) will be posted to your home address. This will provide more security and make it easier
