Gorefield Primary Academy Admissions Policy

 

The Diamond Learning Partnership Trust is the admission authority for all the schools in the Trust. This means that it is the Governing Body that sets and applies the admissions policy for every school.

 

All Policy decisions regarding the admission of children into the School are made by the Board of Trustees.

 

How to Apply for Admission to Reception (September of next Academic Year)

The application process for admissions into Reception is coordinated by Cambridgeshire Local Authority (LA), which acts on behalf of the governing body to offer places at the School.

Consultation regarding PAN at Gorefield

Determined Arrangements 2026-2027

 

The Diamond Learning Partnership Trust (DLPT) is consulting on its school’s admission arrangements from September 2026.

The consultation will take place between Friday 13th December 2024 and will run for six weeks, ending at noon on Friday 24th January 2025.

As an academy, we are our ‘own admission authority’. This means as a Trust we are responsible for running our own consultation on any proposed changes. For 2026-2027 we’d like to propose a change to our admission arrangements, for all schools within the Trust, specifically our oversubscription criteria and in some cases to the Published Admission Number.

A copy of our draft 2026-2027 Admissions Policy can be found on our Trusts website.
