How to respond to your offer
All Haringey offer emails were sent out to families last night, however we are aware that offer emails sent to gmail accounts may be being delayed by the gmail system and may not have arrived yet. If you have not yet received your offer email, you can log on to eAdmissions (external link) directly to see your child’s offer.
You must respond to your offer now. If you originally applied online, you can respond on the eAdmissions website. If you applied on a paper or PDF application, you can respond on the Haringey website:

Alternatively, you can respond in writing to us at the email address below.
Why was I offered this school?
This year 98% of Haringey children were offered a place at one of their preferred schools, and 88% were offered their most preferred school. Your offer email explains how your child was offered their school place.

Waiting lists
Waiting lists will open from 8 May 2024 and from that date you will be able to check your child's waiting list position online. Your child will automatically be placed on the waiting list for any Haringey schools listed higher on your application. Applications for any school listed lower on your application have been automatically withdrawn.
Being on a waiting list does not guarantee your child a place at the school, and their position on the list could go down as well as up. Find more information on our waiting lists page.
To add your child to any waiting lists - or to remove them - contact Haringey School Admissions at the email address below.
