Applications are Now Open to Apply for Secondary School Places for Sept 2026

Applications for secondary school places for Year 6 Pupils are open from 12th September 2025 to 31st October 2025.

If you are an Essex resident applications must be made via Essex County Council; information and the online application form can be found here.  All applications received after 31 October 2025 will be treated as late and will only be processed after all on-time applications. You are less likely to get a place at one of your preferred schools if you apply late.  Offers of places will be sent from Essex County Council on 2nd March 2026; from this date if you applied online, you can also log into your account to see your allocation.

If you have any questions relating to the admissions process, please contact Miss Webb, Stewards Admissions Officer at admissions@stewardsacademy.org, or Admissions at Essex County Council on the details below.
