Schools Admission Arrangements 2023-2024

Consultation:

As the admission authority for the Forest of Dean Trust, we consult on changes to the admission arrangement for schools within our MAT.
 
We propose changes for the admissions for Drybrook Primary School for admissions from the 2023-24 academic year.
 
The consultation closed on Friday 19 November 2021.
 
Proposed Change
The proposed change is to include additional criteria to prioritise pupils who are on roll at Drybrook Primary in Years 5 and 6, at the time of application (before the October half-term), to be admitted to Dene Magna Secondary School in Y7.
 
Reason for the Change
To uphold the ethos of the Forest of Dean Trust.

Please see the proposed Admissions Policy below.
