POST-PRIMARY SCHOOL PLACEMENTS

An email will be issued from the EA on the morning of Saturday 20 May, notifying parents where their child has been offered a place. 

Signposting in this email will guide parents to advice and support, where needed. 

The EA will write to those parents who applied via a paper application to notify them of the outcome of their child's application. 

Please note, parents cannot indicate acceptance or refusal of a place offered via EA Connect. If a post-primary school requires confirmation, they will contact parents with instructions on how to respond. 

Parents are advised that the offer of a place may be conditional on providing verifying information. Again, should a post-primary school require verification documents, they will contact parents directly.

CHILDREN NOT YET PLACED

Parents whose child has not yet been offered a place will be able to submit further preferences via EA Connect for consideration by post-primary schools with places available. A list of schools with places available will be accessible on the E A Website on 20 May 2023. 

Parents of unplaced children may contact the dedicated helpdesk number : 028 9041 8053
