Please see the London Borough of Lambeth’s Admissions page linked HERE for more information. Residents of other boroughs should visit their own Local Authority’s website for details.
On Monday 19 April, Dunraven School will write, by email, to those applicants who applied to the school who have either:

In line with Local Authority guidelines, Dunraven Admissions Office will not be able to communicate with families about offers until you have received correspondence from the Local Authority and from Dunraven School. The correspondence contains information about accepting offers and, for those not offered a place, about the waiting list and appeals.
