Admissions Arrangements
It has come to our attention that the wording relating to home addresses in the 2023-24 Admission Arrangements does not comply with the mandatory requirements of the School Admissions Code 2021, and does not allow for fairness within the application process when considering home addresses. Therefore this has been amended to ensure compliance:
FROM:
After allocation, if an applicant moves from the property they have used in their application to another property which is within or nearer to the designated area of the school; the address of the property they originally owned and declared on application will be the address used for determining their designated area, unless this house has been sold or rented out for 12 months prior to the closing date for applications.
TO:
After allocation, if an applicant moves from the property they have used in their application to another property which is within or nearer to the designated area of the school; the address of the property they originally owned and declared on application will be the address used for determining their designated area, until sufficient evidence has been received for the new address.
