Admissions
The Governing Body of Benedict Biscop CE Academy is the Admissions Authority for the school on behalf of the Academy Trust. This means that a committee of the governing body consider all applications sent to them by the Local Authority, according to the criteria as stated below. This policy has been agreed following consultation between the Governing Body, the Diocesan Board of Education, all other Admissions Authorities in the area and interested parties and parents through our web site. This policy gives regard to the “School Standards and Framework Act 1998, as amended by the Education Act 2011,” “School Admissions (Admission Arrangements and Co-ordination of Admissions Arrangements (England) Regulations 2012” and “School Admissions Code, February 2012.”

In year transfers
If you are looking to transfer your child’s school outside of typical admissions time of Nursery, Reception and Secondary school you would need to complete a school transfer form which can be found on the Sunderland Council website here: https://www.sunderland.gov.uk/schools-admissions. We would then follow the process set out below. Please contact us if you would like any further information on this.
