Parents in Gedling borough are being reminded there is still time for them to apply online for a primary school place for their child.
Those looking to get a reception place for their child this September still have more than a week to complete the online form before the January 15 deadline.
Nottinghamshire County Council are also reminding parents that if their child is attending a foundation unit, nursery class or early years’ group it doesn’t guarantee a place in the main school’s reception class. They must still complete a form online.
Nottinghamshire County Council’s acting service director for education Marion Clay said: “I’d ask parents not to panic if they haven’t already made their application. It’s a particularly busy time of year and I know they’ll have had a lot to juggle in the run-up to Christmas.
“However, applying for a place in good time can help to make the whole process run smoothly.”
The website www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk has information to help with the application process, and there is also an online guide which will help with the application process.
