Serving parents haven’t missed the boat if the school admissions deadline has passed...
Service Personnel who missed the local authority October schools admission deadline can still apply for state boarding school –and will be given ahigher priority if they qualify for the MOD’s Continuity of Education Allowance (CEA).
That’s the message the State Boarding Schools’ Association (SBSA) is giving forces families who know their circumstances may change before the new school year.
State boarding is available through 38 UK schools. Tuition is provided by the state and parents pay for boarding, typically around £4,000 per term, below the maximum CEA.
Many state boarding schools set their pupil admissions numbers (PAN) to cater for the changing needs of service personnel. Late
applications can be made after the October deadline and after March when day-school places are allocated. Applications for other year groups will be accepted at any time of year before the startofYear 10.
To apply for state boarding, parents complete an application through their local authority or the school’s local authority if they live abroad. Aseparate application formmust also be completed for the boarding school. Parents who qualifyfor CEA will be prioritised, regardless of whether they live in the same county as their chosen school, elsewhere in the UK or overseas.
