Admissions 2027: Joining Sandy Secondary School
Years 7 Admissions for September 2027
For those interested in enrolling their child in Year 7 at Sandy Secondary School for September 2027, kindly complete the “Transfer To Secondary” form online by 31st October 2026.
For those requiring a paper form, reach out to the School’s Admissions Team at 0300 300 8037.
All admissions forms for Year 7 should be submitted to Central Bedfordshire Council by the deadline.
Students usually join Sandy Secondary School at the beginning of Year 7. We receive students from various local primary and secondary schools. Many continue their journey with us into our Sixth Form, and we’re open to external Sixth Form applications as well. We also accommodate in-year admissions. Reach out either directly to the school or via Central Bedfordshire Local Authority for such inquiries.
Our School policy is to admit children into the relevant year group for their age – should you wish to discuss this further, please contact the school directly in advance.
In situations where the number of applications exceeds available places (Pupil Admission Number 240), allocation will be based on the following criteria, in order:
- Children under the care of Central Bedfordshire Council or those residing within the catchment area.
- Students living in the catchment area.
- Other children under care.
- Cases with ‘very exceptional’ medical reasons.
- Siblings of current students.
- All other applicants.
All appeals are processed by the School Admissions Team. If your initial application is unsuccessful, please contact them using the link below:
