About a verbal or paper EOI in SI
The purpose of this guide is to provide information on how to manage verbal advice or paper EOI forms entered into the school interface (SI) on behalf of the parent/carer.
Where a family provided a paper EOI form or verbal advice to their primary school, the school has entered the details on the form into the SI on behalf of the parent. These EOIs will have:
1. From paper form or verbal advice tag attached to them.
- Where verbal advice has been provided, this can only be a placement not required or a preference for the student’s local high school – it cannot include any OoA choices.
- Where OoA choices have been provided, a scanned copy of the paper form will be attached in the considerations section in the EOI detailed
2. To view only paper EOIs use the Flags & tags then select From paper form. This will show all paper EOIs provided to the primary school.
