Admissions

Our admission policy is agreed every year by the Trust Board and placed on our website. Stakeholders are invited to make comments on any changes to our admissions policy that Trustee’s propose.  There are three admission policies below relating to in-year admissions for the current academic years, and for current Year 6 joining Year 7 in September 2024.

Admissions for Year 7 for September are administered by the local authority.  Please go to Hampshire School Admissions for more information.
