Consultation on Admission Arrangements for 2025/26
We are delighted to announce that with effect September 2023, Rossett School is now part of Red Kite Learning Trust (RKLT). The transfer of the school into our Trust has been formally approved by the Regional DfE Director.
As the admission authority for Rossett School, Red Kite Learning Trust is carrying out a consultation on its admission arrangements for the academic year 2025/26.
Proposal
Following review by the school’s Governing Board, Senior Leadership Team, Red Kite Learning Trust Board, the Department for Education (DfE) and North Yorkshire Council (NYC) as the local authority, Rossett School proposes:
A decrease to the Published Admission Number (PAN) for Year 7 for the academic year 2025/26 - from 210 to 180
Inclusion of an oversubscription priority group for children who have a parent or carer employed by the Trust at the school, for entry to both Year 7 and to Year 12
Further details and a copy of the proposed Rossett School Admissions Policy for 2025/26 can be viewed by following this link. Paper copies are available from the school office upon request.
All other criteria will remain the same, including for 2023/24 and 2024/25 admissions, other than where wording revisions may be necessary to give effect to a mandatory requirement of the School Admissions Code (2021) or admissions law.
Consultation Timeframe
The consultation will open on 15 December 2023 and the deadline for responding with any comments is 26 January 2024.
If you would like to share your views on these arrangements, please send your response to: info@rklt.co.uk or by post to the registered office address: Admissions Consultation, Red Kite Learning Trust, Pannal Ash Road, Harrogate HG2 9PH.
