Proposed Admission Arrangements 2026-27
We are now undertaking the process of consultation, and this is our formal notification regarding the change below to our school’s admission policy. Given the context of the fall of birth rate in London, we are proposing:
- A reduction of the published admission number (PAN) from 60 to 30 per each year group.
- This will follow a phased approach starting from the Reception year in the 2026-2027 academic year.
- This proposal has been set out in agreement with the local authority of the London Borough of Islington.
Who is consulted
This consultation is for the attention of:
- Parents and/or carers of children currently at the school
- School staff and Local Governing Board members
- Pre-school and primary school providers within a 1.5mile radius of Whitehall Park School
- Then London Borough of Islington network of education stakeholders (nurseries, primary and secondary schools)
- The local authorities of Islington and Haringey.
Terms of this consultation will also be published on the Bellevue Place Education Trust website.
