Moving on to secondary school – apply before 31 October 2022

Parents and carers can find out more about Camden secondary schools and how to apply at school open events this autumn term - you need to apply before 31 October 2022.

Camden secondary schools have been holding open days and evenings during September and October - and will also hold open events in November for their sixth forms. These are a great way to find out more about the schools for yourself before applying. You can download a Camden secondary schools open events 2022 poster here. Please note that Hampstead School's Sixth Form open evening is on Thursday, 17 November, at 5pm - not 10 November, as advertised incorrectly on the poster.

You can also read about Camden secondary schools, what they have to offer your child, and the admissions process in our annual Secondary Schools in Camden guide for parents, which is now published on our website.

The high-quality teaching and supportive environment at Camden's secondary schools aims to help every student reach their potential - whether your child’s aim is a place at a top university, an excellent apprenticeship or landing a great job.

Your child will be due to start secondary school in September 2023 if they were born between 1 September 2011 and 31 August 2012. The next round of Year 7 applications for 2023 entry begins from 1 September 2022. You need to apply before the deadline of 31 October 2022.

  Councillor Marcus Boyland, Cabinet Member for Best Start for Children and Families

We’re proud of the education we offer in Camden. Our secondary schools are high achieving and ambitious for all students and committed to creative and vocational learning, with our unique Camden STEAM offer (science, technology, engineering, arts and maths). I’d urge parents and carers to see for themselves what our secondary schools have to offer by visiting schools on their open days and evenings.
