Most schools require a term’s notice when a student is leaving, which means the period between January and Easter is often the key time for vacancies. However, pupils leave schools for a wide range of reasons and notice is not always given. For this reason, it is always advisable to stay in regular contact with schools so they can reach out to you if a place becomes available.
