Admissions to School
New Admission agreement
2026/2027
Due to the school now forming part of an academy the Admission authority now sits with the Academy Trust (James Montgomery Academy Trust) instead of the Local authority. With this comes a new admission agreement that will take effect in 2026/2027 academic year.
Consultation Period
(15th of October to 26th of November 2024)
​
The trust has to allow a consultation period to take place over a 6-week period with all stakeholders (parents, diocese, governors, local authority and wider community). Within this timeframe if anyone has an issue or concern within the content of the document please contact school who will pass the information over to the trust.
​
After the consultation period has come to an end the admission agreement will be approved by the governing board and will be added to the school website on the 15th of March 2025.
​
The agreement does not change or impact the way that you apply for a school place, this just means that the trust informs the local authority of the admission arrangements that each school has in place for entry to school.
​
Please read through the agreement below, changes made form last year have been highlighted in yellow
Every year we take 45 new pupils in to Foundation 2.
