Im moving into the Bournemouth area and I need to get my son into a Primary school. What do I need to do?
If you are moving into the Bournemouth area you should first contact the Children’s Information Service on (01202) 456223. You can the Children’s Information Service or alternatively visit the service at the Council’s Customer Service Centre, Town Hall, St.Stephen’s Road, Bournemouth, BH2 6EB, for the appropriate application form, information and guidance about the procedure to be followed. The Local Authority cannot offer a place at a school until contracts have been exchanged and a completion date agreed or a tenancy agreement signed. Places are not normally reserved more than half a term in advance. Also, normally, a child must be resident in this country before a place can be reserved at a mainstream school.
