Consultation on Admission Arrangements 2026/27 - Post 16 provision only

In line with the School Admissions Code, Cathedral Schools Trust (CST), which is the admission authority, is consulting on the admission arrangements for children who will be admitted to the Sixth Form effective from September 2026.

Proposal: The school uses an on-line admissions portal supplied by an external provider to administer and process applications to its 6th Form. The proposal is to amend the wording to better explain the application process including how provisional offers are made, and how confirmation and enrolment takes place. There is also clarity as to how late applications and applicants with non-standard qualifications are treated.

The consultation process will run from Friday 6th December 2024 to 12 noon on Friday 31st January 2025.

It is important to emphasise that this is a consultation process and that all views will be heard as part of this consultation and arrangements are not agreed until after the consultation has taken place. For pupils already enrolled at Bristol Cathedral Choir School in other year groups, there will be no change. These are the only proposed changes; admissions criteria will remain unchanged.

Comments are not being sought on the rest of the arrangements.

If you would like to comment or offer feedback on the proposed admission arrangements please complete the form here, ticking the relevant box to show which school your comments refer to. Please note responses received after 12 noon on 31st January 2025 will not be considered.
