    Introduction

    Between 8 October and 26 November 2025, the council consulted on the admission arrangements for community and voluntary-controlled schools for the 2027-28 school year.

    At the end of the consultation, the council’s cabinet was asked to formally determine these arrangements in January 2026.

    Summary of changes

    The majority of the 2027-28 arrangements are the same as previous years. Detailed information can be also found in the ‘Summary of Key Changes’ and other documents.
