Admissions
Are you thinking of choosing Tupton Hall School for your child?
We understand that deciding where to further your child’s education is a big decision for parents and carers. If you are considering sending your child to Tupton Hall School and would like to visit us to see the school 'in action', please contact the PA to the Headteacher on 01246 863127 or email admissions@tuptonhall.org.uk to organise a tour with a member of our Senior Leadership Team.
In-year Admissions
Tupton Hall School co-ordinates all in-year admission applications. Applications for Year 7 are co-ordinated by the Local Authority until 31 December each year. Afterwards, applications should be made directly to Tupton Hall School.
If you are looking to apply for a place for your child at Tupton Hall, please complete our online in-year admission application. Parents/carers will be notified of the decision within no more than 15 school days. If a place is unavailable, the application will be added to our waiting list for the year group applied for. Allocation of places from the waiting list will be made in accordance with the school's over-subscription criteria (see the school's Admissions Policy).
If you require more information about the in-year application process, please contact the school directly by phone or by emailing 'admissions@tuptonhall.org.uk’
Admission Appeals
If an application for an in-year place has been refused parents/carers have the right to appeal this decision.
Appeals must be submitted within 20 school days of receipt of the decision letter.
Appeals should be submitted in writing/email to the PA to the Headteacher or by email to admissions@tuptonhall.org.uk.
