Admissions

The Trustees of The Keys Academy Trust are the Admissions Authority for all of the schools in the trust. The admissions arrangements for all mainstream schools and free schools must comply with the School admission code and the School admission appeals code.

The Keys Academy Trust determines the admissions policy for all of our schools independently of the local authority. We are bound by the government Code of Practice for admissions.

Our close partnership with Oxford Diocesan Board of Education (ODBE) and the local authorities enables us to give admissions advice and support to schools. 

Church of England schools have always been for the benefit of their local community regardless of faith or no faith.
