P7 to S1 Transition Process –\u00a0 Online Application Process<\/span><\/h3>\n

For Primary 7 pupils commencing secondary school from August 2022 onwards, there is now a new enrolment process.<\/p>\n

At the Policy & Co-ordination Committee on 4 November 2021, elected members agreed to\u00a0trial an online enrolment system for Primary 7 pupils due to start secondary school in August\u00a02022.<\/p>\n

This system will be live at www.fife.gov.uk\/schooladmissions<\/a> <\/span>on Tuesday 30th of\u00a0November 2021.\u00a0This system follows the same format as the online application form for nursery places and\u00a0primary one online application forms, which were introduced in January 2021. The
\nintroduction of these online applications in January allowed the Education Service to respond\u00a0during the Covid-19 pandemic to ensure the enrolment process continued.<\/p>\n

Current pupil information from the primary school is sent to secondary schools and analysis\u00a0is carried out on catchment school, older siblings already in secondary schools, foreign\u00a0language undertaken and any additional support needs of the pupil. We have also included
\nwithin the form sections of other information such as dietary requirements, permission for\u00a0school trips to reduce paperwork issued to schools following their start in secondary school in\u00a0August.<\/p>\n

Following feedback from users of the nursery and primary online systems, we believe that\u00a0this new process for future secondary school pupils will be much easier for parents to use\u00a0and school staff to process\/manage. Parents\/carers will be able to access the new
\nstraightforward step-by-step form from your smart phone, personal computer or tablet.<\/p>\n

You\u00a0will also be able to upload verification documents via the system too.
\nThese documents include:
\n\uf0b7 birth certificate of child
\n\uf0b7 council tax notification letter
\n\uf0b7 utility bills, such as gas, electric
\n\uf0b7 child tax credit form<\/p>\n

Any parents who would like to request that their child attends a school outwith their\u00a0catchment area, commonly known as a \u2018placing request application\u2019, will also be able to do\u00a0this online using this form. The system will also check the postcode of the applicant and\u00a0verify the catchment school.<\/p>\n

Each household address in Fife has 2 primary and 2 secondary
\ncatchment schools. These are listed on the system as \u201cnon-denominational\u201d or\u00a0denominational (Roman Catholic) schools. Parents can choose at either entry to Primary\u00a0One or first year of secondary school whether they wish to choose the non-denominational or\u00a0denominational school.<\/p>\n

For any parent\/carer unable to access a smartphone or personal computer, arrangements\u00a0can be made for their catchment school to post a hard copy of the form for completion. A\u00a0socially distanced appointment can be arranged with your catchment secondary school, to
\nenable staff to verify proof of identity documents as well as reviewing a paper enrolment\u00a0form.<\/p>\n

You can access the new form at www.fife.gov.uk\/schooladmissions<\/span><\/a>. You will also find links\u00a0to our placing requests policy as well as our existing School Admissions policy on this page.<\/p>\n

Before accessing the form, you will need to set up an account at
\nwww.mygov.scot\/myaccount if you do not already have one.<\/p>\n

The majority of parents will\u00a0have already set up an account for IPayimpact and Parents Portal, which is the same\u00a0account required to access this P7 to S1 online enrolment system. Once you\u2019ve set this
\naccount up, you will then be able to enrol your child(ren) or make a placing request using the\u00a0online form.<\/p>\n

To help you create an account we\u2019ve made a short \u2018how to\u2019 video which you can\u00a0watch at www.fife.gov.uk\/schooladmissions<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

The deadline to enrol your child(ren) for S1 is 15 March .
\nThe deadline to apply for a placing request application is 15 March 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
