If your child is not on roll at a Greenwich school you need to complete an in-year admissions application.
If you would like a transfer from one Greenwich school to another for educational or other reasons, you must contact the Head teacher of your child’s current school to discuss the matter. If you still want to transfer schools you will need to contact School Admissions and they will advise you of vacancies, and provide a transfer form.

Appeals for Admissions
You’ll be sent a letter with the decision about your child’s school. If your child is refused a place, you can appeal against the decision. The letter will tell you how.
You must appeal against each rejection separately. You can only appeal once against each rejection.
The admission authority for the school must allow you at least 20 school days to appeal from when they send the decision letter.
The admission authority will set a deadline for submitting information and evidence to support your appeal. If you submit anything after the deadline, it might not be considered and may result in delays to your hearing.
Coram Children’s Legal Centre may be able to give you advice about appeals
