How places are allocated
Secondary school places are allocated by our School Admissions Team, taking into account:
- Published admission arrangements
- The number of places available at each school
Wokingham Borough residents
If you pay Council Tax to Wokingham Borough Council you should complete our application form for any secondary school within the Borough, or for application to schools in other authorities.
If your child doesn't attend a Wokingham Borough primary school and you require an application pack, please complete the school application pack request form.
Residents of other authorities
You must apply for schools using the application form provided by your home local authority. If you are considering a place at a Wokingham Borough school, please read our parents guide, to understand the basis on which places will be allocated. Your local authority will forward your child’s application to us.
