Admissions
Return to after determination (and by 15 March 2019 at the very latest).
New Admissions to the College are coordinated by Plymouth City Council. Parents can apply for up to 3 secondary schools for a place for their child, and rank them in order of preference (please refer to Plymouth City Council’s ‘The Next Step Parents Guide’ for further details).
Our College has a Published Admission Number for each year group as follows:
Year 7 - 180
Year 8 - 180
Year 9 - 180
Year 10 - 180
Year 11 - 180
A child with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) or Statement of Special Educational Needs (SEN) which names the College will be admitted. In the event of over-subscription, Plymouth City Council will apply the following admission criteria in order of priority:
1. Looked after children and all previously looked after children.
2. Children with exceptional medical or social grounds.
3. Children with a sibling already attending the College at the time of admission.
4. Children attending a feeder primary school (Austin Farm, Compton C of E; Eggbuckland Vale; St Edward’s C of E; St Matthew’s C of E; Widey Court).
5. Children whose parent/carer is a member of staff employed on a permanent contract at the school for 2 or more years at the time at which the application for admission is made.
6. Other children.
