# School Admissions

## How Admissions Work

Admissions to Longbenton High School are managed in accordance with our published admissions arrangements and the wider North Tyneside admissions process.

### Admissions Authority

The Governing Body is the Admissions Authority for Longbenton High School and is responsible for determining the school's Admissions Policy.

### Parental Preferences

North Tyneside schools operate an equal preference system for processing parental preferences.

### Education, Health and Care Plans

Where a child has an Education, Health and Care Plan, the statutory process for naming a school within the plan applies.

### Oversubscription

Where there are more applications than places available, the school's published oversubscription criteria are applied. Full details can be found in the Admissions Policy.

## Applying for a School Place

North Tyneside Council provides information about school admissions, including applications for Year 7 places and in-year admissions. Parents and carers can find further guidance and application information on the council's School Admissions website.
