P1 PLACES SEPTEMBER 2020

 

All schools have received an email from EA with the following details in relation to placement letters for our children moving to P1 in September 2020.

‘Given the uncertainty of  the  current  situation,  EA  has made  arrangements to  prepare  and  issue notification of placement letters for P1 and Pre - School Stage 1 to parents for receipt on 29 April 2020.

 

The letter will outline the application outcome, provide information on the appeals process and link to the EA website for more information.

 

As it is possible, due to Covid-19, that some post may take longer to deliver than usual, the Citizen Portal will be opened on Wednesday 29 April and parents / guardians who had applied online can log in to view their child’s pre-school/P1 (target age Stage 1) placements.  Guidance on how to log in and access placement offers will be accessible on the EA website.

The letter will not include information about start dates, induction meetings etc, this will be communicated directly by the school at a later date when they are able.’

 

Therefore, EA are contacting the parents about admissions and placements. Parents should receive a letter from the EA on Wednesday 29th April offering a P1 place for September, but there is a chance that postal services could be delayed so the online portal will also be opened up parents to check applications.  If you have received information from EA to say that you have a place in Victoria Park, parents should email the school office – dmccabe346@c2kni.net  as soon as possible after receiving confirmation  to inform that they are accepting/not-accepting their place. 

 

Kind Regards
