If your child is due to start school in September 2024 applications closed on Monday 15 January 2024. If you have not applied and are a Kent resident please contact kentonlineadmissions@kent.gov.uk with your child's name, date of birth and full address. They will advise you on the next steps.

We fully appreciate the enormity of choosing a school for your child and how difficult this process might be. We have created a short film which we hope will offer you a flavour of Lady Boswell's and what makes us different.  You can find this at the start of the  previous Admissions page.

We are happy to answer any questions that you may have. If they are not answered in the FAQ (frequently asked questions) below, please email admissions@ladyboswells.kent.sch.uk  

In the April prior to your child starting school you will be informed by the Local Authority which school your child has been allocated. You can appeal against the decision and the allocation letter will outline how to go about making such an appeal.

If your child is due to start Primary school in September 2024, you can appeal if you are refused a place at one of your preferred schools on National Offer Day (Tuesday 16 April 2024)

You must submit your appeal before Tuesday 14 May 2024 for it to be considered by Tuesday 16 July 2024. Any appeals received after this time will be heard within 40 school days from the deadline, or where reasonably possible in line with updated guidance from the Department for Education.

For late applications, appeals should be heard within 40 school days from the deadline for lodging appeals where possible, or within 30 school days of the appeal being lodged where reasonably possible in line with updated guidance from the Department for Education
