Admissions Policies
Thinking of joining us?
We hold Open Days and welcome visits from parents and children who are considering applying for a place here, as this is a great opportunity for you to see what we have to offer. If you would like to visit, please contact us to make an appointment. (Visits are not a compulsory part of the admissions process and will not affect decisions on whether a place can be offered at our school.)

The Admissions policies for pupils' admissions during the academic years 2021-22 and 2022-23 can be found below. They include a timetable for appeals.
