Admissions criteria for Post Primary Schools has been published on Thursday 11 January 2024.
Post Primary Applications for school year beginning September 2024 will open on Tuesday 30 January 2024 at 12 noon.
Before starting your child’s application you should:
- Read carefully the admissions criteria for each Post Primary School that you wish to nominate as a preference.
- All schools will require the birth certificate to verify a child’s name and date of birth. Either a full (long) or short birth certificate may be used or an amended birth certificate or an adoption certificate, where appropriate, is acceptable. If you do not have a copy of your child’s birth certificate, please contact the schools you wish to nominate to see what other documents they may accept.
- You should refer to the admissions criteria to find out if other supporting documents are required by each of the schools you have chosen e.g. proof of address.
- You can scan or take a photo of the documents you require for each school and save them on the device you will be using to make your Post Primary Application. Make sure the photos or scans are clear and legible.
- For GDPR purposes you may wish to remove personal/sensitive/private information from your documents before uploading e.g. financial details in bank statements.
- You will require an email address to be able to register on EA Connect to submit an application.
