Families who move into the area should contact:
The Admissions Section at the Town Hall for schools that are maintained by Darlington Borough Council.
and for:
Voluntary Aided schools and Eastbourne Academy enquire direct as to whether there are any places available.
Parent/carers will be advised on the availability of places and should a place(s) be provisionally offered, a start date will only be confirmed after a meeting with the Head Teacher has taken place. The meeting for maintained schools will be set up by the Admissions Team in agreement with the parent/carers and the Head Teacher of the school.
Should however a parent/carer request a place at a school that has no places available, then they will be informed about the appeals process.
