Admissions
Here at Turton & Edgworth, we are an inclusive school that welcomes children from all backgrounds, faiths and abilities. As our school is a Local Authority controlled school, the school determines the admission arrangements in agreement with the LA. The LA is therefore the ‘Admissions Authority’ for our school. We do NOT have a catchment area and we do NOT have a requirement for church participation or a requirement to be baptised as a part of our admissions arrangements.
The regulations for entry to each school, where the Admissions Authority is the LA, are published each year by the LA. Parents can receive a copy of these regulations directly from the LA.
The LA publishes a composite admissions prospectus each year, which gives information about how parents can apply for a place in the school of their choice. Parents have a right to express a preference for the school of their choice and they should do so on the application form. Expressing a preference does not, in itself, guarantee a place at this school. Application forms can be obtained from the Education Department of the LA and should be completed by the date stipulated on the forms. The LA notifies parents about the school place as soon as all the applications have been considered.
