Moving into Warwickshire from overseas
To make sure that a school place is offered to your child as quickly as possible, please submit your application as soon as possible after your move.
If possible, ask their previous school to send them work to do from home until a new school place has been found for them.
If English is not your first language, please contact our Ethnic Minority and Traveller Achievement Service (EMTAS).
Overseas nationals entering the UK who wish to apply for a state-funded school need to check that they have a right of abode or the conditions of their visas otherwise permit them to access a state-funded school.
Children moving into Warwickshire under the Homes for Ukraine scheme
Families who have moved into Warwickshire due to the war in Ukraine should apply for a school place through the in-year admissions process. Please use our online parent portal to submit your school application.
Please note that there has been no change to the legislation that surrounds the process for school admissions for children who have moved into Warwickshire due to the war in Ukraine. You will not be given higher priority for a place at any of the schools you apply for, nor will the application be processed any quicker than other applicants.
We aim to send decisions on all in-year applications within 15 school days, so please wait until this period has passed before contacting us further.
