North Yorkshire Council has opened the admissions process for primary school places for children starting in September 2027. Parents and carers can now apply for children born between September 1, 2022, and August 31, 2023. The deadline to submit applications is January 15, 2027.

Councillor Annabel Wilkinson, executive member for education, learning, and skills, said choosing a primary school is important for families. She urged parents to make applications to the local authority where they live, warning that late applications could affect school place allocation. Parents are advised to consider the council's home-to-school travel policy when making their selections.

School place offers will be announced on National Offer Day on April 16, 2027. This year, 96 per cent of families in North Yorkshire secured their first-choice primary school, up from 95 per cent last year. Further information is available on the council's website.
