OASIS ACADEMY Warndon – Proposal to reduce Published Admissions Number from 90 to 60 for admissions from 2027.

Oasis Academy Warndon is an all-inclusive academy driven by a powerful ethos aspiring to treat everyone equally whilst delivering a holistic education. Our academy is part of a large family of primary, secondary and all-through academies across England.

The Schools Admissions Code 2021 sets out a requirement for all Admission Authorities to undertake statutory consultation where they propose a variation to the admissions arrangements of an academy.

The purpose of consultation is to ensure transparency and openness on the contents of a proposal and allow parents, carers and other interested stakeholders to make a representation that will be considered as part of the determination of the proposal.

Oasis Community Learning has been working with Warndon and the Department for Education on the proposed changes to Published Admission Number.

Proposal

Our proposal is for the Oasis Academy Warndon to reduce the Published Admissions Number (PAN) from 90 to 60.   

The main benefits of this proposal are:

• Reducing the Published Admission Number (PAN) will support the school’s financial sustainability, helping us to allocate resources more effectively and continue providing high-quality education for all pupils.
• With the availability of additional physical space, we will be able to work collaboratively with the local authority to explore the potential development of a dedicated SEND unit, providing enhanced support for children with additional needs.

Oasis Community Learning will be working closely with staff and families to ensure they are kept informed and supported throughout the project to change the admissions criteria.

Your feedback is important to us, and we welcome your views on the proposed changes. Please click on the link below to complete our survey.

•       parents of children who attend the academy
