Applications for places in East Renfrewshire primary schools will take place from Monday 15 January until Friday 19 January between 1.45pm and 3.30pm. Parents and carers of children who will be five-years-old between March 2018 and February 2019 should apply to their local denominational or non-denominational school at this time. A number of documents are required to be brought along for the application process, and it is important these are produced so that the application process runs as smoothly as possible. Documents required are:

• Child’s birth certificate
• Current Council Tax notice
• Roman Catholic baptismal certificate (if applicable)
• Mortgage statement or rental agreement for a period of at least one year
• Child benefit statement
• Driving licence, utility bill or bank statement can also be accepted if no longer in receipt of child benefit
