School Admissions & Appeals

Reception Entry and Secondary Transfer 2016 / 17

We offer a bespoke independent school admissions advisory service to individual parents, nurseries, pre-schools and primary schools. Our service is aimed at supporting parents through the very stressful school admission process, enabling you to make fully informed and realistic decisions on the schools that you are considering. We deliver group sessions and 1:1 support in a tailored, objective and caring manner.

Both secondary transfer and the reception entry process for 2017 will soon be upon us with applications needing to be submitted by 31st October 2016 and 15th January 2017 respectively. This can prove to be a very anxious time for parents and their children without support.

We have over 30 years' experience and are trained to advise parents and schools on the education admissions and appeals process, policies and procedures; with a track record across a number of London Boroughs, a Federation of 3 –18 Academies, serving on governing bodies and senior management teams.

If you or anyone you know needs some support with this up coming process please contact us. Tell a friend, text a friend and share.
