By having a polite chat on the phone directly with the school, often you can find out more information than from perusing the website or by emailing. You can find out relevant information more quickly so you don’t waste time applying for a school that you have very little chance of getting a place in! Have you noticed that people often tell you more in person then they might by email…?

Speaking to the admissions administrator will give you a good idea about if there is a waiting list and, if so, how many children are on it. They will also be able to tell you what the pupil turnover is like at the school and whether the space(s) you need is likely to become available.

Step 4: ‘Phone the schools directly and ask to speak to someone about admissions.
Did I hear you say ‘Really? Ring them?!’
Yes!
If you are going to be applying to a school that is oversubscribed (many are), the person responsible for admissions is like your new best friend! Ask if there is likely to be space in the school year you need (or years, if you have more than one child) when you need it (i.e. when you move home).
