School places outside Kent

If you are a Kent resident but live close to the borders of the county, you may want your child to go to a school outside of Kent. These schools may be closer to your home or easier to get to.

To do this you need to complete a Kent Common Application Form (or In Year application form) and ensure that you name your choice school in the relevant box. You don't need to fill out any other forms. We will contact the other council on your behalf.

The application form is available from your local school.
