School Admissions
Local Admissions Forum
Devon Local Admissions Forum is a mandatory body set up under the School Standards and Framework Act 1988. The Forum facilitates discussion between all admission authorities (Voluntary Aided, Foundation and LA Community Schools) on how best to organise admissions in the local area, in order to meet as many parents’ preferences as possible, and to reach agreement about difficult issues, such as providing school places and sharing pupils with challenging behaviour.
The Membership of Devon’s Forum has recently been revised in line with regulations issued by the DCSF. As well as the admission authorities mentioned above the Forum includes representation from community groups such as Parent Teacher Associations (PTAs), Devon Association of Governors (DAG) and neighbouring LAs to help ensure a consistent approach.
