Determined Admission Arrangements for 2027/28

Admission authorities (either the local authority or a school’s governing body/academy trust) are required to determine their admission arrangements annually by 28 February.

Hampshire County Council is the admission authority for all community and voluntary controlled schools within its area and is therefore responsible for determining their admission arrangements by this deadline each year.

The admission arrangements for 2027/28 were formally determined by the Executive Member for Education on 24 February 2026, following a full statutory consultation and consideration of recommendations from the Hampshire Admissions Forum. These determined arrangements are set out below.
