It is a mandatory requirement of the School Admissions Code that all schools must have admission arrangements that clearly set out how children will be admitted, including the criteria that will be applied if there are more applications than places at a school.
The Directors of BHCET (the admissions authority) are required to determine their school admissions arrangements every year and consult on those arrangements once every seven years. The purpose of this report is to enable the Trust to consult on the published admission numbers and over-subscription criteria for the academic year 20282029.
The consultation will be conducted in accordance with the requirements of the school admissions code for a period of 7 weeks starting on Monday 28 September 2026 until Friday 13 November 2026.
