Secondary school applications now open

1 September 2025

Applications are now open for children starting secondary school in September 2026, Powys County Council has said.

Parents or carers of children who are now in Year Six have until Friday 31 October 2025 to complete their application.

Cllr Pete Roberts, Cabinet Member for a Learning Powys, said: "All parents/carers should complete this application as soon as possible for a place in a secondary school in September 2026.

"If it is not completed in time, then this may jeopardise their child's place at their preferred school."

Parents/carers need to complete an online application by Friday 31 October 2025 by visiting Applying for a School Place
