Confirm dates for applications

Post by madasahatter »

Can someone confirm what is the latest date to enrol our children? Did I hear correctly that it is now 5 Nov.
One of the schools I want to put on the list tells me I can't have the asnwer I am looking for until after half-term :?

When I called KCC to confirm they told me it was only in extenuating circumstances that the extension was available, so that worries me a little. They asked me where I had heard about the extension as they regarded it as a "wild rumour". Perhaps best to call to check if you will be entitled to the extension. Also, I saw on one of the threads that it would be possible to submit your form and then go back into it and edit it after 31st if there was indeed an extension. Any ideas on whether a form can be edited after submission but before the cut-off date?

The worst people to get reliable info from are those at the KCC Admissions HQ

I have spoken to them a few times and half the time they dont know what they are talking about. I take everything they say with a pinch of salt.

Mum2010 it clearly says the 5th online so I wouldnt worry and you can edit as many times as you want before the closing date on the 5th.
