The Diocesan Guidance on Admissions supports schools in providing clear, transparent and robust admission arrangements. The four model policies and SIFs for schools to choose provide consistency in format and content across all schools which helps parents when applying for schools for their children.
The Education Service has provided an Admissions Tutorial that easily walks governing bodies/boards through the process of reviewing and determining their admission arrangements, something that they are required by law to do every year.
All schools are required to comply with the DfE's School Admissions Code and School Admission Appeals Code, the purpose of which is to ensure that all school places for maintained schools and academies are allocated and offered in an open and fair way, and that the appeals process that is followed if parents do not get a place is fair and robust.
