In Year Admissions

Applications for a place to join the Academy outside the normal admissions round (an In Year application) will be considered by the Academy directly.  An application should be submitted to Hampshire County Council directly (at the following link),  which will be forwarded on to the Academy.  We will aim to respond to your application within 10 school days, but no later than 15 school days.

If we are unable to offer your child a place, you will be given the right of appeal. Information on how to lodge an appeal will be included in the outcome letter.
