Schools outside Newham

break

From September 2010 as a parent/carer you must complete your home borough's common application form (CAF) to apply for a school place even if one or more of your preferred schools are outside of the borough, you can no longer apply to the school or borough direct.

Details of any applications you make for out borough schools will be sent to the admission authority via a secure site within five days of receipt in Newham. For some schools, usually faith schools you will be required to also complete their own supplementary information form (SIF).

We strongly recommend you to research any school and read their admission arrangements before you apply and if possible use at least one of your preferences to name your local Newham school as this is the school where most Newham children have the highest priority for a place.
