Redbridge school admissions for parents

Official source

Redbridge keeps primary, secondary, offer-day, waiting-list, appeal and 11 Plus guidance inside one school-admissions section. The most practical Redbridge-specific points are the 6-preference limit, separate supplementary forms and the dedicated pages for what to do after allocation day.

Primary September 2026 round

Redbridge set 15 January 2026 as the on-time primary closing date, said offers would be released on the evening of 16 April 2026, and published 30 April 2026 as the deadline to accept a primary offer or request a preference change. Late primary applications were still accepted until 18 August 2026.

Secondary September 2026 round

Redbridge set 31 October 2025 as the on-time secondary closing date, said offers would be released on the evening of 2 March 2026, and published Friday 13 March 2026 as the deadline to accept a secondary offer or request a preference change. Late secondary applications were still accepted until 18 August 2026.

6 preferences and supplementary forms

Redbridge lets families list up to 6 schools on both primary and secondary applications. Any supplementary form still had to reach the relevant school by the main closing date.

Waiting lists and appeals

The council said the primary waiting list would go live on Monday 11 May 2026. Appeal deadlines were Friday 3 April 2026 for Year 7 and Friday 15 May 2026 for Reception.

Separate selective route

Redbridge grammar-school applicants must also follow the separate Redbridge 11 Plus route. When checked on 23 May 2026, the live 11 Plus page had already moved on to the next test cycle, so parents should confirm they are reading the correct cohort year before using it.
