North Yorkshire Council is consulting on proposed school admission arrangements for community and voluntary controlled schools for 2028/2029. Please note, this will not affect the admissions arrangements for St Francis Xavier school as the determination of admission arrangements for Academy Schools is the responsibility of the schools’ governing body as the admission authority for the school.

If you wish to view the proposed changes and respond to the public consultation, please find more details in the notice attached.
