Year 7 Entry

As Europa is an all-through school, all our Year 6 pupils automatically move into our Year 7, and so we are not part of the standard Secondary School application process.  To apply for Y7 entry, we recommend you do the following:
  1. September-October 2025: Apply for a Year 7 place at an alternative secondary school via Oxfordshire County Council https://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/schools/apply-school-place/year-7-applications.
  2. Offers are announced in early March.  You will need to accept a place at another school.
  3. 1 June 2026: Apply for an in-year transfer to Europa (as per the usual procedure)
  4. If we have places available, offers will be made by late June/early July.  If you are offered a place, you then release the school place you accepted in March.

Find out how to apply for a school place in our state-funded Secondary: Years 7 to 11 (S1 to S5) This will be updated in Summer 2026

Before you apply, we request that you consider very carefully the long-term, whole-family commitment involved. We encourage you to look closely at our curriculum and find out more about becoming bilingual. Learning in two languages is a wonderful opportunity but it will be hard work and needs your full commitment.

Year 7 In Year Application 2025 - Bug in the system
IMPORTANT: Applications for entry to Year 7 for September 2025
 
The Council has advised that there is a glitch in the system whereby applicants looking for a place in Year 7 are being directed to the Secondary Application process from which Europa is excluded.  Instead, all applications should be entered as if your child is applying to start within the next 6 weeks in Year 6 (please see below).  When prompted, you can enter any start date within the next 6 weeks.  In section 5, ‘Supporting Information’, please state that you are looking for a September start date.image.png

 

As an all-through school, all secondary applications (apart from 6th form), including those for Year 7, are treated as so-called in-year applications. These can be submitted via the county council in the first week of June. Responses are usually given in July, as the county council needs some time to process all applications for Oxfordshire county council. We do NOT participate in the first round of applications, so you will need to apply for another school in October.

Science, Maths, English and Philosophy are taught in English. History and Geography are taught in the second language (French, German or Spanish) in year 7 or (French, German) in year 8, 9, 10 & 11. An extra language (L3) is introduced from Year 7 as a new language.

Please bear in mind that the level of the second language (French, German or Spanish) is a lot higher than that in most other UK schools, at a near bilingual level.
