Confused! Sutton Schools when living in Kingston?

[mandymoo]

Hi,

New to this, and very recently been thinking about options for DS secondary and am in the early stages, however really confused (easily done) regarding the application process for grammar schools in Sutton, when living in Kingston borough:

1. Does this mean applying for schools through both LEAs?
2. If applying for out of borough schools, do I need to reduce the number of options I put down on my local LEA's form, or list the out of borough schools?? How do the LEAs know what order our preferences are if we are looking at two different boroughs?

Any relevant advice welcome

You apply through your own borough & therefore have the number of choices on your specific form.

You wil apply on one CAF only to your LA. You can put schools that are not in your LA on the CAF. You don’t have to apply separately to different LAs for different schools.
