Parents apply, track and book in one place.
Parents and carers apply online for nursery, primary and secondary places.
They track each application and book extra hours without phoning your team.
One account, every child
A parent applies for several children from one account. Each child has their own application.
One application per child
Parents apply for each sibling separately, so each decision stands on its own.
Details entered once
Family details carry across applications. Parents do not type them twice.
Nursery, primary and secondary
The same account serves a family from nursery to secondary.
A preference builder
Parents rank their settings and choose an attendance pattern for each.
- Ranked settings, council and partner provider
- An attendance pattern for each preference
- Split placements across more than one setting, where you allow them
