Consultation on proposed admission arrangements 2027

The Duston School is consulting on a proposed change to our Year 7 admission arrangements for 2027.  At this stage the amendments are 'proposed' and are under public consultation.

 

Key changes are outlined below:

 

  • Enable pupils on roll in Year 6 in the primary phase of The Duston School to automatically receive places in our Year 7 cohort. (this criteria has therefore been removed from the oversubscription criteria)

  • Reduce the Published Admissions Number (PAN) to 180 in Year 7 (the capacity for Year 7 is 240 which includes the 60 children transferring from Year 6).

     

Should you wish to make comments on the proposed arrangements you can do so via the West Northants County website using this link: https://www.westnorthants.gov.uk/school-admissions/school-admission-arrangements

 

The consultation will run from Monday 17th November to 31st December 2025.
