Parents and carers with children due to start at primary schools in Leicestershire in September 2021 can now apply for places at their preferred schools.

Parents and carers have until Friday 15th January 2021 to submit their applications.

Ivan Ould, county council cabinet member for children and families said: "We know that starting school is a big milestone so we would advise parents and carers to start considering this now and allow enough time to research and shortlist up to three primary schools that they want to include in their application.

We encourage parents to make their application online as they will receive an automatic acknowledgement that it has been submitted."
