If you choose to defer your child, please confirm this with your Early Learning and Childcare setting and your child will automatically be carried forward for an additional year. You will not therefore be required to complete a registration form for Primary One.

Placing Requests

Parents who wish to apply for a place at a school or early learning and childcare (ELC) setting other than their local school should complete an online Placing Request form accessed in Education/Learning from the OIC website www.orkney.gov.uk during that week and thereafter. Further Information is available within the ‘School Placing Requests’ page which can also be accessed from the ‘Related Links’ section.

Where possible, parents’ wishes are met, however this might not always be possible should demand exceed the number of places available. Due to the change in legislation with regards to deferrals it will not be possible to consider placing requests or split placements in our Kirkwall ELC settings this year (Glaitness, Kirkwall, Strynd). Only exceptional requests will be considered.

School transport is not available for placing requests.
