    Gosport and Fareham Multi Academy Trust Bay House School, Brune Park School, Gomer Junior School Admissions Policy 2019-20 This policy will apply to all admissions from 1 September 2019, including in-year admissions. The link school criteria will only apply to main round applications. Pupils will be admitted, normally at the age of 7 or 11 dependent on school phase, without reference to ability or aptitude. The MAT board of trustees is committed to trying to ensure that the admissions arrangements will not disadvantage unfairly, either directly or indirectly, a child from a particular social, racial or faith group, or a child with a disability or special educational needs and that other policies around, for example, school uniform or school trips do not discourage parents from applying for a place for their child. The Mat board of trustees will allocate places up to the published admissions number. Applications for schools within the GFM are made to an individual school and not the GFM body. Where the number of applications exceeds the PAN (Gomer Junior – 60, Brune Park – 300, Bay House – 350) for the school of application the following over-subscription criteria will be used to prioritise applications. The PAN is for entry year 3 at Gomer and year 7 at Bay House and Brune Park. School refers to the school of application – not the GFM. E.g. Bay House, Brune Park or Gomer Junior. The MAT board of trustees will admit any pupil whose Education, Health & Care Plan (EHCP) names the school. Where possible such children will be admitted within the PAN.

  • Agenda Item 5 1 HAMPSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL Decision
    Agenda item 5 HAMPSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL Decision Report Decision Maker: Executive Lead Member for Children’s Services Date: 6 June 2011 Title: Post-16 education in the Gosport area: Development of a preferred option Reference: 2941 Report From: Director of Children’s Services Contact name: Phillip Walker, County Manager, Post-14 Learning Tel: 01962 845284 Email: [email protected] 1. Executive Summary 1.1. Following approval to undertake a consultation on the future organisation of post-16 education in Gosport (Report reference 1648, 17 November 2010), and responses to that consultation, this report seeks approval to move forward with the process by setting out a number of key principles around which a preferred option for the future organisation of post 16 education may be developed. 1.2. If approved, the County Council will facilitate a project group made up of the key local parties. The project group will be tasked with developing a preferred option around the key principle outline in section 4 by December 2011, with the ambition to commence implementation from April 2012. 1.3. Dependent on the precise nature and scope of the preferred option developed by the project group, further approvals are likely to be required ahead of full implementation, including consideration by independent governing bodies, external bodies and government departments. 1.4 Any resource requirement associated with the preferred option and its implementation, including financial, will need to be fully assessed as part of any subsequent approval process. If approved, the immediate resource requirement, including the facilitation of the proposed project group, would be met from within the department’s existing resources.
