Croydon schools receiving new pupil applications this month will be able to take 460 extra children in total next year as the council continues to meet rising demand.
Pupils starting or moving school next academic year can now apply, and the list of available schools now includes two new primaries and nine expanded schools.
The council is partway through a three-year drive to create more than 1,300 extra places by 2018, and parents have until 31 October 2015 to apply for secondary schools, and until 15 January 2016 for primary schools.
There will also be two new schools at Oasis Academy Fiveways (90 reception places) and Krishna Avanti (60 places).
Four primary schools – Heavers Farm, St John’s C of E, Christ Church and Chipstead Valley Academy – will permanently expand by 30 places each, subject to planning approval for expanded buildings.
The Archbishop Lanfranc secondary school will increase by 70 places, and details will be announced soon on the council’s work with headteachers and governing bodies to deliver four additional temporary primary classes.
