Forest Academy

Admissions

Criteria

The criteria for allocating places are:

  • 'looked after' children
  • special educational needs
  • siblings
  • geographic location

Waiting List

Parents wishing to register their child for a particular school should arrange to visit the school in order to complete the appropriate form, and have their child's name added to the waiting list. It should be stressed, however, that the waiting list does not operate on a "first come, first served" basis.
