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.
Co-ordinated Admissions Scheme 2024/25
The Co-ordinated Admissions Schemes describe the way that Cornwall Council manages the allocation of places at schools in Cornwall and how it lets parents and carers know which school place their child has been allocated.
