  • Admission to Year 7 Or Year 9 2021 a Guide for Parents and Carers
    Admission to Year 7 or Year 9 2021 A Guide for Parents and Carers This guide contains information to help you apply for a school place in Year 7 or Year 9 (secondary schools, studio schools and schools with an additional point of entry at Year 7 or Year 9) You can also visit our website: bcpcouncil.gov.uk/schooladmissions Introduction Introduction Welcome to our guidebook for parents and carers which has been designed to help you find the right school for your child whether your child is starting at a Secondary or Studio school, or moving school during the 2021-22 school year. It outlines what information we need from you, and what you can expect in return from us. Across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole we have 96 schools. The Council works in close partnership with them. The aspirations for our area are ambitious and include investing in our children and young people and enabling access to high quality education. We understand that moving up to Secondary or Studio school is an exciting experience for both children and parents. However, this transition can also be a challenging time for all as decisions are made about which schools to apply for - with this process then followed by the inevitable and anxious wait to see if the application has been successful. Similar to other areas, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council has experienced increased demand for school places due to rising birth rates and movement of families. We have adopted an overall strategy for the provision of school places which includes looking at options for additional capacity at existing schools and new school provision.

Beyond the parks green space is Poole Bay, with its panoramic vista across the harbour and the Isle Purbecks, where the breathtakingly rugged Jurassic coastline begins. Spencer Lindsay Regional Managing Director RENAISSANCE 04 05 A SENSE OF PLACE Dorset is known for some of the best beaches in the United Kingdom. From long stretches of golden sand to the wildlife on Brownsea Island, there is something for everyone.
