In Year Transfers

If you wish to apply for admission for any year group other than Year 6/7 transfer please refer to the  current Admissions Criteria 2025-26 .  To make your application you will need to go online at the Surrey School Admissions Portal Synergy - Enquiry (servelec-synergy.com). We encourage you to use the online system as it is much faster than the paper version. If you wish to complete the paper version it can be found here In-year Centrally Managed Application (CMA) form  this must be returned with your evidence to Surrey County Council at the address provided on the form. Please do not send your CMA form or supporting evidence to the school.

The School will aim to notify applicants of the outcome in writing, via email, within ten school days of receipt of the application from Surrey County Council. Please ensure you use a current email address on your application.

Please check the admissions criteria (see above) for any Supplementary Forms or evidence you may be required to send in to support your application.

You should be aware that we are generally an over-subscribed school and we may not be able to offer a place. The Winston Churchill School maintains its own waiting lists, you must return your 'Waiting List Reply Slip' to the school if you wish to be added to the list. Waiting lists are ranked according to the school's admissions criteria, not the date the application was received or when the child's name was added to the list. Your child's position on a waiting list can go down as well as up. This is because other children who have greater priority against the school's admission criteria may be added to the list (for example, a child who moves into the area).

Waiting lists are automatically cleared at the end of every term, if you wish to remain on the waiting list you must email admissions@wcsc.org.uk before the start of the new term. 

If you are not offered a place, and you wish to appeal please see Appeals section below.

Please note, EHCP applications and appeals should go directly through the Local Authority.

Please note that due to the volume of applications received, we are unable to offer ad hoc or individual tours. Successful applicants will receive a tour as part of their induction. You can find our virtual tour videos here
