In‑Year Admissions
If you wish to apply for a place during the school year, this is known as an In‑Year Admission. Although GCC is the admission authority, in‑year applications must be made directly to the school.
More information can be found here:

How to Apply
Parents and Parents and carers should complete the Gloucestershire County Council In‑Year Application Form:
Completed forms should be emailed directly to the school
We aim to respond to all In‑Year applications within 10 school days.

he letter will include:
- confirmation of the place offered,
- the date by which you must accept or decline the offer,
- any next steps required (such as completing admission forms or arranging a start date).
Please ensure you respond within the stated timeframe so that the place can be secured.
If we do not hear from you, the offer may be withdrawn in line with the School Admissions Code.
If Your Application Is Unsuccessful If we are unable to offer a place, you will receive a written refusal explaining the reason(s) why.
Your Right to Appeal If your child is refused a place, you have the legal right to appeal the decision to an Independent Appeals Panel.
For Community Schools, Gloucestershire County Council manages the appeals process.
The school will:
- notify you of the refusal,
- provide information on how to lodge an appeal.
GCC will:
- arrange the Independent Appeals Panel,
- provide the timetable and process for hearings.
Appeals are completely independent of the school and the Governing Body. School Admissions Code All admission authorities must comply with the statutory School Admissions Code (2021).
