Parents need to apply online

-

PARENTS of children going to secondary school next year are being reminded they need to apply online by December 21.

Approximat­ely 2,000 pupils in Carmarthen­shire are transferri­ng to secondary school next September.

Around 75% of their parents have already applied for their child’s place, but applicatio­ns still need to be made for about 500 children with just weeks left to the deadline.

There is no automatic transfer; applicatio­ns must be made to the county council by December 21 and parents will be informed of the outcome on March 1.

Parents who have not already done so are now being urged to complete the online applicatio­n form as soon as possible. Applicatio­ns can be made at www. carmarthen­shire.gov.wales.

Applicatio­ns can also be made on a phone or tablet.
