Consultation on Admission Arrangements 2025-2026

Each admission authority must consult on their admissions arrangements if they are considering making changes to their published arrangements or they must consult every seven years if no changes have been made.

In line with the School Admissions Code, due to there being no changes from the previous year, The Enquire Learning Trust will not be undertaking a consultation on their 2026-2027 Admissions Policy.

The Admissions Policy for 2026-2027 is now available on the Admissions page in the Policy & Documents section.
