Entry for Year 7 in September 2023

Important Information regarding the Waiting List for Year 7 entry in September 2023

If your child was not offered a place at Hoe Valley School on National Offers Day, 1st March 2023, but you did list Hoe Valley School as one of your preferences on your child’s application through Surrey County Council, you will have been automatically added to our waiting list. You do not need to contact us to be added to the waiting list.

If you did not list Hoe Valley School as one of your preference schools and you would now like to be added to the waiting you, you must do this through Surrey County Council – you can contact them on the email address provided on your offer letter, and ask them to add Hoe valley School to your preferences which will then add you to our waiting list. We cannot do this on your behalf.

If you wish to check the waiting list position of your child, the quickest way to contact us is via email directly to Mrs Knight, our Admissions Officer at admissions@hoevalleyschool.org and your email will be responded to as quickly as we can. Please do bear in mind that we will be extremely busy handling enquiries throughout March so response times may be a little slower than usual. Information regarding admissions is only available from the Admissions Officer, and not through our Reception Team. Thank you for your understanding.

Hoe Valley will be admitting students into Year 7 in September 2023 as part of Surrey County Council’s coordinated arrangements. Therefore applications for Year 7 for September 2023 have to be made through Surrey County Council using their online Common Application Form (CAF).
