ADMISSIONS

Starting high school is an important step, and we do everything we can to ensure our new students feel prepared and confident when beginning their journeys at Honley.

The majority of families will complete their application to high school in the September that their child starts Year 6.

Applications for a school place in September 2025, will be available online between 1 September 2024 and 31 October 2024. If you apply after this date it can greatly reduce your chances of obtaining a place at your preferred school.

Please read the guide below to find out how to apply.

ADMISSION APPEALS

If you were unsuccessful in securing a place you can find out more information about re-allocations and appeals at About admission appeals | Kirklees Council

If you would like your child to transfer to Honley High School from another secondary school, this would be an in-year admission.

There are two types of in-year admission:

Parents or carers who are moving/have moved house and wish to move to a school closer to their new home
Parents or carers who are not moving house, or whose change of address is not a significant one (a significant house move is defined as over 3 miles for Key Stage 2 and above), but would like their child to change school

To apply, please complete the In-Year Common Application Form (ICAF) below. Paper copies are available from school and from the School Admissions Team.
