Schools admissions

Terms and conditions

You have read all the relevant information about applying for a school place contained in Harrow's Primary and/or Secondary Booklets.

You will provide proof of your child's date of birth to ensure you are applying for the correct year group.

You will provide proof of your address . Failure to provide adequate proof of address means that your application is not complete and cannot be processed. This could mean your child will not have a school place for September.

You will need to provide one of the following:
* a copy of current council tax bill
* a copy of tenancy agreement arranged through a letting/estate agent (private/informal letting agreements are not accepted)
* a letter from the housing department/housing association.

If you are not able to provide this evidence, please contact the school admissions service to discuss what evidence we may be able to accept in your case.

In addition we can make checks on Harrow's Electoral Register to confirm that applicants are registered at the address provided or we may ask you to provide a copy of your current driving licence.

Harrow takes very seriously any attempt to gain an advantage in the admissions process by giving false information and will investigate possible fraudulent claims. If we offer a place at a school and then discover that the offer was made on fraudulent or misleading information (for example, a false claim to living at an address) we will withdraw the place offered. This has happened in previous years. Where a place has been offered based on false information, we can withdraw the offer even after your child has started at school. This will cause considerable distress, particularly for the child involved. Providing false information could lead to prosecution.

  1. You authorise Harrow Council to obtain such verification as they require.
  2. You understand the need to make any medical / sibling claims now. Once the allocation is made it may be too late.
  3. You understand that there must be only ONE application per child for Harrow primary schools, 11+ transfer or in year applications. Any further application made (either on-line or paper) will make your earlier application invalid.
