Admission arrangements 2025-26


Cornwall Council is the admission authority for:

  • community schools; and
  • voluntary-controlled schools. 

This means it must set the admission arrangements for these schools.

All other schools are responsible for setting and publishing their own admission arrangements.  These schools are:

  • academies
  • free schools
  • foundation schools
  • trust schools
  • voluntary-aided schools

The academy trust or governing body is the admission authority for the school.  They must publish their arrangements on their school website.

Cornwall Council also sets a Co-ordinated Admissions Scheme annually.  The Council must co-ordinate applications to all state-funded schools in Cornwall.  The schemes set out the processes that the Council will follow.

The Co-ordinated Scheme for 2025/26 can be seen here:
