Admissions Consultation

All admission authorities must formally agree their admission arrangements every year, even if the arrangements have not changed from the previous year. When changes are proposed, a consultation has to take place, which will take the views of parents/carers and other interested parties into account.

The Hope Sentamu Learning Trust (HSLT) Trust Board have determined their admissions arrangements for 2025 – 2026.

Following determination of arrangements, any objections to those arrangements must be made to the Office of the Schools Adjudicator. Objections to admission arrangements must be submitted by 15th May in the determination year.

You can object to the Office of the Schools Adjudicator because you consider a school/academy’s admission arrangements:

• are unlawful
• do not comply with the school admissions code

If your concerns are about the admission arrangements for a year other than the 2025 to 2026 academic year, please ensure it is clear which academic year admission arrangements you are referring to.
