In-Year Admissions
An In Year Admission is a student who wishes to join the school after the start of the school year. If you wish to apply for a place you would need to complete an In Year Admission Form and return it to admission team on admissions@thamesview.kent.sch.uk. The School will respond by post within 5 school days with a decision.
There is no guarantee that Thamesview School will be able to offer your child a place. If no place is available, you will be given the opportunity to place your child on the waiting list which is ranked in order of the oversubscription criteria listed on our Admissions Policy. This does not prevent parents from exercising their right to appeal against the decision not to offer a place.
Appeals
To lodge an appeal for any year group, please submit a Secondary School Appeal Form.
Kent County Council will then contact you directly with an Appeals hearing date.
