89% get first choice primary school for September
89% of Southend-on-Sea children will start primary school in September 2019 at their first choice primary school, and 97% at one of their top three preferences.
The data on primary school allocations has been announced by the Council as part of ‘national offer day’, with parents and children finding out what school their children will be starting in September.
Out of 1966 applications, 1754 (89%) received an offer for their first preference, 136 (7%) their second preference, and 24 (1%) an offer for their third choice. Fifty-two (3%) received an alternative offer.
Brin Martin, Director of Learning at Southend-on-Sea Borough Council, said: “I am delighted that 89% of local primary school children will be attending their first choice primary school come September, with 97% gaining entry to one of their top three choices.
“I am conscious that there are a small number of disappointed families who did not receive any of their top three choices and I would encourage parents who find themselves in this position to contact the admissions team at the Council. The Council remains committed to supporting and continually improving all of our schools across the Borough which will help to ensure that there are sufficient places offering good quality and choice to local parents and carers.”
