We know that moving from primary to secondary school is a significant step for students and their families.
The best way to understand life at Epsom & Ewell High School is to see it for yourself. We warmly invite prospective students and parents to visit, explore our classrooms and facilities, meet our staff and students, and get a real sense of our school community.
Our team is always happy to answer questions and provide guidance to help make the transition as smooth as possible.

In-year admissions - how to apply for a place if you are moving during the school year
There are six steps in the application process.
Step 1: Research and choose schools to apply for
You research and choose the schools that you want to apply for. You can apply for up to six schools. You should also check if your child will be eligible for free home to school transport to your chosen schools. If your child is not eligible for free home to school transport it will be your responsibility as a parent to get your child to and from school.
You should try to do this as early as possible.
Step 2: Complete the application form
You complete the application form and return it to the local authority where you live. You submit supporting documents with your application form if you are applying under exceptional social or medical criteria.
Some schools also ask for a supplementary form in addition to the application form.
Step 3: Applications are assessed
Applications are ranked according to each school's criteria. Surrey CC then determine the best offer that can be made based on the order of preferences on your application form.
Step 4: Surrey CC offer you a place
Surrey CC will tell you the outcome of your application.
Step 5: You accept or decline the place
You must accept or decline the place.
Step 6: If you don't get a place at your preferred school
If you are unhappy with the school place that has been offered, you can appeal. For Surrey schools you must do this by the dates shown in the appeals timetable or the dates set out against each school in Surrey's directory of Surrey schools.
You can also add your child's name to the waiting list for your preferred school.
