If you’ve got a child starting at primary or middle then today is the day place allocation emails start hitting your inbox.
Staffordshire County Council manages the school admission process and today they’ve announced that the majority of parents in Staffordshire have been allocated their first-choice school.
Helen Riley, Deputy Chief Executive and Director for Families and Communities said:
“It is hugely important for parents to know what school their children will be attending in September, which is why our admissions team have been pulling out all the stops to ensure all Staffordshire parents know where their children will be going in the autumn.
“This is despite the ongoing pandemic, which has meant officers at the county council have had to work in different ways to get the job done.
“Schools across the county have been doing a fantastic job throughout the pandemic to ensure pupils’ studies can continue, and have had to adjust to different ways of teaching, regular testing of pupils, and keeping their buildings Covid secure. Our schools will continue to do the very best for their pupils, so parents whose children will be starting this September can be reassured that they will be learning in a safe and welcoming environment.”
Parents who applied online will be receiving emails about the results from today onwards so keep an eye on those inboxes.
