As an Academy, the Governors are responsible for establishing the admission criteria and oversubscription criteria for the school. These are set out in our admissions policies, available to download on the left of this page.
Catchment area
The school’s catchment area is described in the admission policy. A map of the school catchment area is available on the My Cambridgeshire website, where you can also enter your address details to determine your catchment school.
The application process for admissions into Year 7 is co-ordinated by Cambridgeshire Local Authority (LA), which acts on behalf of the governing body to offer places at the School. All parents are advised to read the ‘Next Steps’ Local Authority booklet for parents on secondary admissions.
Parents should apply online at www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/admissions or submit a Cambridgeshire Application Form, available from their child’s primary school or from the LA Admissions Team, no later than the national closing date on 31st October. The LA will issue offer letters on the National Offer Date (1st March or first working day after). The LA Admissions Team will handle late applications (those submitted after the national closing date).
For further information and specific dates, please refer to the full scheme for secondary co-ordination, available from the LA Admissions Team or from the website www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/residents/children-and-families/schools-&-learning/apply-for-a-school-place/secondary-school/.
