In Year Transfers

If you would like to move during the school year, you can apply for an in year transfer. You can do this in one of two ways. 

To transfer from one school in Stockport to another, a three part transfer form will need to be completed. These forms are available from school.
Part one should be completed by the parent. Part two should be completed by the current school. Part three should be completed by the requested school and sent to the Admissions Support and Advice Team.

If you are moving to a school into Stockport, you will need to complete an application form online via the Stockport Council website here
