Register your child for school in November
If your child’s fifth birthday is between 1 March 2026 and 28 February 2027, you should register them for school this November.
Registration takes place between Monday 3 and Friday 7 November 2025.
If you, or someone you're helping, can't register online, you can contact your local primary school and make an appointment to register in person during the registration dates.
To register your child to go to another school outside of your catchment area, you’ll need to register them at a school within your catchment area first, then make a placing request.
If you can’t register your child for school till after Friday 7 November, please contact your local primary school directly.
Children who will be 4 when school starts in August 2026 can apply to be deferred and get an additional year of free nursery and childcare. Please talk to your child’s nursery or childminder.
Apply for school on Renfrewshire Council’s website.
