To apply for a school place in Durham, you need to submit an application in writing. Durham says you can do this either online through the Parent Portal or by asking for a paper application form.
| Application method | What Durham says |
|---|---|
| Online | Use the Parent Portal: apply online |
| Paper form | Ask for a paper application form to be sent by post or email |
A couple of useful points: you can’t apply over the telephone, and for primary or secondary places you should check the school admissions pages for the relevant application timelines and deadlines.
