September admissions

Places for September 2023

If you have been offered a place in Year 7 for September 2023 we will be writing to you soon.

Key Dates for Year 7 transition

June: Visits to many pupils at their primary schools. After these visits have taken place, tutor groups will be allocated to ensure a fair mix of gender and ability.

Thursday 06 July 2023: New Intake Day.  All Year 6 children spend the day at Oldfield. They meet their tutor group for the first time, sample some lessons and start exploring the school.

Monday 10 July 2023: New Intake Evening. This provides an opportunity for parents to meet their child’s tutor and the Headteacher.

Late applications

All applications must be submitted to the child’s home Local Authority (LA) by the closing date of 31 October. Under the Bath & North East Somerset LA’s secondary coordinated scheme, any parents refused a place for the new Year 7 intake may ask for their child’s name to go on the waiting list where the name will remain until the end of the academic year. Any late applicants should complete their home LA’s common application form as soon as possible. The Governing Body will be informed of any late applications received.
