Inicio Educational Trust

Admissions Consultation 2027-28

Dear Stakeholders,

As our own admissions authority, Inicio Educational Trust is required under the School Admissions Code 2021 to review our Admissions Policies annually and to consult on our arrangements from time to time. The code requires consultation in the following circumstances:

  • When changes are proposed to admission arrangements, all admission authorities must consult on their admission arrangements (including any supplementary information form) that will apply for admission applications the following school year.

  • Where the admission arrangements have not changed from the previous year there is no requirement to consult, subject to the requirement that admission authorities must consult on their admission arrangements at least once every 7 years, even if there have been no changes during that period.

The following changes are proposed to the Admissions Policies for 2027-28:

  • Green Street Green Primary School is consulting to increase the places available within the Additionally Resourced Provision from 24 to 25

  • Tubbenden Primary School is consulting to decrease the places available within the Additionally Resourced Provision from 33 to 30
