    Local Authority Report To The Schools Adjudicator From Kent County Council 30 June 2018 Report Cleared by: Keith Abbott - Director of Education Planning and Access Date submitted: 28th June 2018 By : Scott Bagshaw – Head of Fair Access Contact email address: [email protected] Telephone number: 03000 415798 www.gov.uk/government/organisations/office-of-the-schools-adjudicator Please email your completed report to: [email protected] by 30 June 2018 and earlier if possible 1 Introduction Section 88P of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 (the Act) requires every local authority to make an annual report to the adjudicator. The Chief Adjudicator then includes a summary of these reports in her annual report to the Secretary for State for Education. The School Admissions Code (the Code) sets out the requirements for reports by local authorities in paragraph 6. Paragraph 3.23 specifies what must be included as a minimum in the report to the adjudicator and makes provision for the local authority to include any other issues. The report must be returned to the Office of the Schools Adjudicator by 30 June 2018. The report to the Secretary of State for 2017 highlighted that at the normal points of admission the main admissions rounds for entry to schools work well. The Chief Adjudicator expressed less confidence that the needs of children who need a place outside the normal admissions rounds were so well met. In order to test this concern, local authorities are therefore asked to differentiate their answers in this year’s report between the main admissions round and in year admissions1.

  • Secondary School Application Guidance 2020-2021
    Garlinge Primary School and Nursery 21st September 2020 Year 6 Secondary School Admission Guide 2020 - 2021 Dear Parents and Carers, Under usual circumstances, at around this time of year, I would usually hold a meeting for parents and carers of pupils in year 6 in order to support you in the process whereby you would select and apply for a place at a local secondary school. Unfortunately, under the current restrictions, we are unable to hold a large meeting, but we hope the information in this letter will give you some support with the process, should it be needed. All parents of children in year 6 will need to complete the Secondary Common Application Form (SCAF) to apply for their preferred secondary school. The closing date this year is midnight on the 2nd November 2020. This year, parents will be able to name up to six schools in order of preference on their list; this is an increase from four schools in previous years. This is because parents will not know their child’s Kent Test results before applications need to be submitted. As an initial line of enquiry, I would strongly recommend visiting secondary school websites, which will help to give you the information on the school and the admissions process. Do investigate all of our local schools and read their selection criteria. This will then help you to consider if your child would be happy at the school. Most schools have an admissions section, as well as an admission email contact. Schools are also beginning to prepare virtual tours this year for prospective students and their parents to visit.

  • 2019 Transfer to Secondary School School Admission Appeals
    Please return your appeal form by 29 March 2019 2019 Transfer to Secondary School School Admission Appeals A Guide for Parents This guide is to help families who have not got a place at the secondary school they wanted. If you are disappointed and worried about where your child will go to school in September, this guide will answer some of your questions and explain what you can do next. In the first instance you should visit the school you have been offered to get a feel for it and meet with the headteacher. Once you have done this, if you are still not satisfied you may want to consider lodging an appeal for your preferred school(s). www.kent.gov.uk/schooladmissions Why didn’t my child get a place at the school I wanted? The County Council will have tried to offer a place at the school you wanted. If that hasn’t happened it’s probably because the school had more applications than places available and other children had a higher priority for the place than your child. It may also be because your child did not meet the entry requirements for the school and so could not be offered a place. What does this mean? When a school doesn’t have enough places for everyone who wants to go there, it has to have a way of deciding which children should get in. Often a school takes the children who live closest first, so if you live further away, it may have filled all its places with children who live nearer.

Statement of Special Educational Needs/Education, Health and Care Plan - before the application of oversubscription criteria, children with a Statement of Special Educational Need or Education, Health and Care Plan which names the school will be admitted. As a result of this, the published admissions number will be reduced accordingly. 2.

Everyone has been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, of course. However, I want to pay a huge tribute here to the University’s staff and students who have had to adjust to extremely testing circumstances. Over the space of a few weeks we had to change the way that we deliver our teaching; arrange a new system of online exams; and switch our working methods to enable the majority of staff to work from home and ensure that those who were required to work at the university were as safe and secure as we could possibly arrange. At the same time, many of our staff, both academic and professional have been making substantial contributions to the national efforts to respond to Covid-19 – from supplying PPE to engaging in cutting edge research.
