MORE than nine out of ten families have learned they have received their first pick of local primary schools for next September's academic intake.

Figures released today (Monday, 17 April), reveal the vast majority of children across Thurrock will receive one of their top three primary school choices for the September 2023 academic year. 

From 2,311 applications more than 98% of children will have been offered one their top three places. 92% of applicants this year have been offered their first choice of primary school, an increase from 88% first choices offered in 2022.

Parents who applied for their child's primary school place online will be able to view which school has been allocated via their online account. For those who did not apply online, offer letters are being posted today.

Waiting lists for school places will be ready on Tuesday 2 May. From this date, we will be able to advise parents and carers of their waiting list positions for Thurrock schools. For waiting lists at schools outside the borough, you must contact the relevant schools local authority.

Secondary school allocations were announced last month.
