Help with choosing a school

You will find everything you need to make an informed decision about a school on our Find a school pages but here are several other sources that you can use to find out more:

• Most schools have open days which you can attend. You can contact the school directly to find out when these are held. 
• All schools must have a prospectus which gives more information about the school. You can request a copy from the school.
• You can request support if your child has special educational needs.
• The head teacher of the school can provide advice.
• If you are unable to apply online, paper forms are available. Please contact us.
