Application for places in Years 1 – 6

In-Year admissions must be applied for online at www.islington.gov.uk/admissions

The school will be notified by email that you have applied for a place. The school office will then make contact to arrange a meeting to discuss the admission further. If accepted, you will need to complete all paperwork and provide relevant documentation prior to your child starting. It is essential that the school has everything in place before a child starts Robert Blair to ensure a smooth transition. You will then be taken for a tour of the school and introduced to your child’s class and class teacher (if available).
