These special nights are designed to help families decide which high school will be the preferred choice for children moving from Year 6 in September 2025.
Parents have until Thursday, October 31, 2024, to submit their secondary school applications - and our high schools in North Kirklees will be presenting potential pupils with a flavour of what their setting is like at their official open evening over the next few weeks.
Here are the dates of open evenings for the class of 2025, at 12 secondary schools in Dewsbury, Mirfield, Batley and Spen.
