Parents urged to apply for Notts primary school places
They are entitled to express preferences for the schools they wish their children to attend, but do not have outright entitlement to a place at the school they like best.
Parents are being warned that they should not assume that their child will get in at a particular school just because they live in the catchment, have a brother or sister attending the school or live reasonably close to the school.
