DSS/private secondary schools

Process

1. From 9 Each school handles its own applications.

   DSS schools not in allocation admit independently.

2. After admission Trade-offs between retaining a place and allocation

   Accepting a DSS place that doesn't participate in allocation means withdrawing from the allocation system (including through-train rights).

Easiest to get wrong

• Participating DSS schools in allocation can reserve over 30% of discretionary places, so chances in the discretionary stage are relatively higher.
