Families of children who attend an infant school will also need to apply for a junior school place for this coming September 2022.

Local councils must provide a place at another school, if your child is not offered a place at any of the schools you’ve applied for.

Hartlepool Borough Council launched its application system on November 8, 2021 ahead of National Offer Day on April 19, 2022.

If an application is received after the January 15 deadline, the chances of being offered a place at the family’s preferred school are reduced.

Forms can be filled in online or on paper.

Families will be sent email confirmation once the application has been received and will then receive a further email about their child's school place sooner than if you apply by paper application form.

Applications sent in a paper form will receive a letter from Hartlepool Borough Council.

You can apply for a school place in Hartlepool online here. Meanwhile, paper application forms are available from all primary schools and can also be requested from the School Admissions Team.
