Only girls can sit the examination at Altrincham Grammar School for Girls. • You must also complete your Local Authority’s Common Application Form which, in Trafford, must be returned to the Local Authority by 31st October 2020. If you reside outside Trafford please check the return date for your own authority. You must ensure that you have named Altrincham Grammar School for Girls as a preference on the Local Authority’s Common Application Form if you wish to be considered for Altrincham Grammar School for Girls. • Your child must have a date of birth between 1st September 2009 and 31st August 2010. • To enter your child for the entrance test, please complete the online registration form which is available under Admissions on the school website www.aggs.trafford.uk by 12 noon on Friday 26th June 2020 at the latest, but preferably well before this date.

Test Results The test results will be posted mid to late November 2020. For your child to qualify for a place at Altrincham Grammar School for Girls she must gain the qualifying score of 334 (or 324 or more for children in receipt of Pupil Premium. Please refer to the Admissions Policy) and you must ensure that you have named Altrincham Grammar School for Girls as a preference on the Local Authority’s Common Application Form (CAF) by 31st October 2020. Do not wait until you know the outcome from the entrance exam as this could make your application late and reduce your chance of being offered a place. Please be aware that achieving the qualifying score is not an offer of a place. As required under the National Co-ordinated Secondary Arrangements, the list of qualifiers is then sent to the Local Authority, who will apply their allocation procedures to determine the offer of a place on national offer day, the 1st March 2021. Oversubscription and how places are awarded Where eligible applications for admissions exceed the number of places available, and after students who have a statement of SEN or an Educational Health and Care Plan, which names the school have been admitted, places will be awarded in accordance with the following order of priority: 1 Children who are Looked After or who have been previously Looked After, regardless of their place of residence; 2 Applicants residing within the school’s catchment area who are in receipt of pupil premium; 3 Applicants residing within the school’s catchment area who have a sister who will be a pupil of the school at the time of the applicant’s proposed admission; 4 Applicants residing within the school’s catchment area. Where the number of applicants qualifying for admission under this category exceeds the number of places available, then priority shall be given to those applicants residing closer to the school; 5 Applicants residing outside the school’s catchment area who are in receipt of pupil premium. Where the number of applicants qualifying for admission under this category exceeds the number of places available, then priority shall be given to those applicants residing closer to the school; 6 Applicants residing outside the school’s catchment area who have a sister who will be a pupil of the school at the time of the applicant’s proposed admission. Where the number of applicants qualifying for admission under this category exceeds the number of places available, then priority shall be given to those applicants residing closer to the school; 7 Applicants residing outside the school’s catchment area. Where the number of applicants qualifying for admission under this category exceeds the number of places available, then priority shall be given to those applicants residing closer to the school; Please refer to the Definitions on pages 1 of the School Admissions Policy 2021, which explains ‘distance from school’ What happens after students have qualified and been offered a place? In March 2021, families will be sent further information about an induction day for students and a welcome evening for parents. Appeals Procedure The Governors arrange an independent panel, which will consider any appeals. If we do not offer your child a place you have the right of appeal, details will be on the school website by 28th February and available from the Admissions Officer after 1st March. Waiting List The school will operate a waiting list for Year 7 admission in September, following the completion of the allocation and appeals process. Each added child will require the list to be ranked again in line with the published oversubscription criteria. Priority must not be given to children based on the date their application was received or their name was added to the list. Should a place become available, the oversubscription criteria will be applied to those on the waiting list. REMINDER • Please complete the online application as soon as possible, so that your child can be registered for the entrance test.
