DESCRIPTORS Access to Education; *Admission Criteria; *Admission (School); Case Studies; Educational Change; Educational Discrimination; Educational Policy; Foreign Countries; Free Enterprise System; *School Choice; Secondary Education IDENTIFIERS England; *Local Education Authorities (United Kingdom); Reform Efforts; Wales ABSTRACT This paper presents four case studies that are part of a larger study on admissions arrangements and impacts on school admissions for all local education authorities (LEAs) in England and Wales. It examines factors influencing the social composition of schools. A total of 23 LEAs completed interviews about their secondary school admissions arrangements The four case study LEAs have significantly different market scenarios. Results show that recent national education policy has not been evenly implemented across LEAs. A combination of organizational, structural, and demographic factors have muted much of the potential impact of school reforms on school admissions. Normative patterns of school use have not been substantially affected by the market reforms or the administrative actions of LEAs. LEAs remain important arenas within which school choice operates because they define kinds of choice available to parents in their administrative boundaries.

  • Appendix 6 Impact Analysis: Current Patterns of Demand Across the City in the Context of Feeder School Admission Criterion Option (Option B)
    Appendix 6 Impact Analysis: current patterns of demand across the city in the context of feeder school admission criterion option (Option B) Analysis of the most recent verified PLASC (Pupil Level Annual School Census) data was carried out to give an indication of the alignment between existing patterns of school place provision and demand, if a feeder school criterion was implemented (Option B). For the purposes of data analysis, the focus was placed on the Year 4 cohort as it represented the year group transitioning to secondary school in which the admission arrangements for 2019/20 would apply. A comparison exercise was undertaken between the PAN of secondary schools against the numbers of pupils who are resident within catchment and are also attending the community primary schools nested within the secondary school catchment. It was found that 4 of the 13 schools had more pupils resident within catchment and attending feeder schools than could be accommodated in their linked secondary schools: Cardiff West Community High School (270 pupils in catchment, 240 PAN) Eastern High (343 pupils, 240 PAN) Fitzalan High School (386 pupils, 300 PAN) Llanishen High School (394 pupils, 300 PAN) Further to this approach, comparison of the aggregate Published Admission Number (PAN) of the feeder schools to their respective linked secondary schools, indicated that only 6 of the 13 secondary schools would potentially be able to accommodate all pupils from their respective feeder primary schools, as the aggregate PAN in primary schools is less than
