Admissions arrangements

Issues with Microsoft systems

We are experiencing issues with multiple Microsoft systems, including email. Microsoft are actively working on the issue. We apologise for any delay in responses that you are expecting from us.

Sometimes schools don't have enough places for everyone that applies. Where this is the case, all applications are assessed and ranked according to certain criteria. Places are then offered in ranking order.

Different types of schools will have different criteria. Community schools, voluntary controlled and controlled schools use the community/voluntary controlled schools admissions policies. However, voluntary aided, foundation and academy schools can have their own admission policies.
