The published admission arrangements for 2024-25 are here: East Sussex County Council admission criteria 2024-25 [259.7 KB] [pdf]

The arrangements have changed for 2024-25 to include a new priority for children of staff employed at the school in question who meet certain criteria.  Parents wishing to apply under this priority will need to supply evidence that they meet the criteria prior to the closing date, otherwise their application will be processed as if they did not work at the school.

There has been a change to the community area for Eastbourne and Willingdon and maps showing the change can be found here:  Eastbourne area change map [1.3 MB] [pdf].  The area outlined in red will now form part of the Eastbourne community area for both primary and secondary schools.  

Find the published admission numbers here: East Sussex published admission numbers [546.0 KB] [pdf].  Please note that, since the meeting, the governors of Iford & Kingston CE School have advised that they would like the decision to reduce the PAN to 20 to be reversed.  The Lead Member has agreed to reinstate the previous PAN of 30 for 2024-25.
