We will be adding information to this page to help families with the admissions process for children starting Reception (Primary Education) in September 2025.
Content will be added over the next few months so please come back and visit us.
All admissions for Reception 2025 are handled centrally by
Essex County Council School Admissions Team
Children can start primary school in the September after their fourth birthday.
From 4 November 2024 to 15 January 2025 you can apply online for your child’s primary (reception) school place.
Read about the primary (Reception) school place application process.
Applications received after the 15 January 2025 are considered late and will reduce your chance of being offered a place at your preferred schools.

Advice to ALL parents and top tip
Billericay schools are generally over-subscribed. When making your application through ECC, make sure you use all your 4 choices to list the schools you would like to be considered for your child (include your catchment area school). If your 1st choice/catchment school is oversubscribed, ECC will consider the other choices to place your child. If you only list 1 or 2 choices and those schools are oversubscribed, your child may be placed in a school in another town/area. Putting just 1 school doesn't mean you will be offered a space in that school.
