Admissions

Applying for a secondary school place

In common with all schools in the London Borough of Hackney, Hackney Education coordinates the application process on behalf of Haggerston School according to the scheme which they publish in their annual Admissions Protocol which is published in accordance with the SAC.

Parents must use the Common Application Form (CAF) of the Local Authority in which they are resident to apply for a place for their child at Haggerston School. The CAF must be submitted to the Local Authority by the deadline date published in the Local Authority Protocol.

All applications must be made through Hackney Education via Hackney Education’s website.
