When your child is moving from primary to secondary school, you will be sent details on how to apply online (usually via your child’s primary school early in the autumn term of Year 6). Applications are dealt with centrally by the Hampshire County Council Admissions Team and applications should be made via the Hampshire County Council Portal – https://www.hants.gov.uk/educationandlearning/admissions
If you require a paper application form please contact the school office.
If your child attends an independent school, a school outside Hampshire, or you move into the area after the Autumn term, you should apply directly to Hampshire Children’s Services for advice and an application form. Although Perins is an Academy school, there are no additional forms for you to complete.
