School admissions arrangements for September 2020

We are required annually to consult on our admissions arrangements for children due to start school in Reception, children due to transfer from Year 2 at an infant school, and children due to start Year 7 in a secondary school.  This applies to all community and voluntary controlled schools.

For September 2020 we are consulting on making changes to the admissions over-subscription criteria.  In line with the Education Strategy and narrowing the gap between disadvantaged pupils and their peers, we are proposing to amend the over-subscription criteria to weight in favour of disadvantaged pupils.

The consultation opened on 23rd November 2018 and will close on Friday 11 January 2019.

We would like to gain the opinion of as many schools as possible so would like to encourage you to look at the proposed changes and let us know what you think. The proposals are published on the admissions policies webpage. (The consultations are listed in chronological order so please refer to the documents listed with 2020-2021 entry).

All Warwickshire schools and surrounding local authorities should also have received a copy of the proposals by email. 

Responses and queries should be sent to:
