We manage the school admissions process for children who live within, or are moving into Cambridgeshire for all maintained schools, including academies. Places are allocated in accordance with the Government’s School Admissions Code,which ensures that school places are allocated in an open and fair way.

This includes a new school catchment search facility so that you can find out if you are living in our school catchment area. You can also apply for a place online.
