All the dates for open days at Bristol secondary schools

Applications are now open for parents of Year Six pupils in Bristol to choose a secondary school for their child. They have until midnight on October 31 to make that decision.

Over the coming weeks secondary schools are opening up their buildings for prospective pupils and their parents to look around the schools. While independent schools will have a separate process, the majority of families who will be applying for a state-funded school can do so via the Bristol City Council website.
