For information about the application process, catchment areas, moving house, school transport and much more, please click the BHCC Admissions Guide 2019-2020 icon below.
Applications to join the school are made via BHCC website. Once you have been secured a place at Longhill High School you will need to complete a pupil registration form, which can be downloaded here.
Parents/carers and students who accept a place at Longhill High School, must agree to abide by the school rules, uniform standards, behaviour expectations, discipline, consequences and sanctions in accordance with our school polices which can be found on the policies page of our website.
sQuid is a secure online payment system that eliminates the need for your child to bring cash or cheques into school. It can be used to pay for school trips, lunches and any other expenses that may be incurred at school. sQuid funds are pre-loaded to the secure online account and then spent in the canteen using a unique biometric finger print identifier (not an actual fingerprint). We are required to obtain consent from parents or carers before recording student’s biometric data. Therefore, we ask that you ensure you tick the consent boxes on the pupil registration form.
We usually complete the scanning on the new students induction day. If you do not wish to participate in this process the school will make alternative arrangements for your child to purchase food in the canteen using a card. There is a replacement charge payable for lost cards. Please email cashless@longhill.org.uk if you do not want to have your child biometrically registered. You will be provided with a unique, secure access code for your sQuid account prior to the start of the school year.
Registration and Consent Form Completed
Once you have completed your registration and consent forms, they should be sent to the school via one of these options:
Intake Evening (Year 7 only)
Opportunity to meet with teachers and set up sQuid cashless payments account, locker application etc.
First Day/First Week
Year 7 students start a day earlier than the other years and are supported through
their first few weeks. More about transitioning into year 7 can be found here.
If a student joins mid-year or joins at the start of other
years they also receive additional support and mentoring during their first few weeks.
