The window to submit an application to open a Free School in 2013 has closed. The guidance, forms and templates that were used are available here for information only.

Please only contact the Department if you submitted an application by 6pm on 24 February 2012, and do not receive an acknowledgement of receipt. Do not provide the Department with additional information unless specifically invited to do so.

We will hold interviews from 23 April to 1 June 2012, and will inform applicants about the exact date of their interview in due course.

Applicants will be informed of the outcome of their application during the summer.
