Consultation on Marston Montgomery School Admission Arrangements for September 2027

The Local Trust Committee (formally called the Local Academy Committee) are proposing to consult on a revised school admissions policy for September 2027. The proposed changes are as follows:

• Local Academy Committee has been amended to Local Trust Committee throughout the policy.
• The policy has been streamlined in line with all other DDAT school admissions policies. We have different versions of the policy across our schools and therefore we are streamlining our policies further for consistency across all schools for 2027/28 admissions.

The consultation period will commence on 20th October 2025 and run until 28th November 2025. During this time, individuals and organisations are invited to express their views and any concerns about the proposed admissions policy for Marston Montgomery Primary School.

The proposed Admissions Policy for the 2027/28 academic year is available to download here:

The proposed policy is available below this text
