All the information you will need about secondary school admissions for 2025 is on our website. You can apply online for school places and read the guide for parents which contains the links to the individual school’s admission policies and forms.

All Plymouth’s 18 secondary schools hold ‘open events’ for families to visit the school and speak to staff. Please refer to the individual schools websites for dates and further information.
