2026 Year 7 Admissions

National Offer Day – Monday 2nd March 2026

If your child has been offered a place at St Hilda’s, please email admissions@st-hildas.co.uk with:

  • Your child’s full name
  • Date of birth
  • Confirmation of whether you wish to accept or decline the place

Appeals

If your child has not been offered a place and you wish to appeal the decision, please complete the following form by clicking here.

Appeals must be submitted by 13th April 2026 to ensure that the panel can hear and decide on your appeal during the scheduled dates. Appeals submitted after this deadline may not be heard until September or October.

Please read the Appeals Guidance for further information.

Waiting List

The school will operate a waiting list until the end of the Autumn term. Applicants will be placed on the waiting list in accordance with the points scored and the published tiebreakers.

Please note that we are unable to confirm your child’s exact position on the waiting list. This is because the list depends not only on scores but also on the preferences of other applicants, which we do not know. In addition, if places become available, any offers may be made through a random allocation among top-scoring applicants, so the waiting list is subject to movement and we cannot determine a specific place for any child.

Should a place become available, we will offer it to the next child on the waiting list in accordance with the admissions criteria, and we will continue working down the list in this way until the place is filled.

All children who applied but were not offered a place will automatically be placed on our waiting list until the end of the Autumn term.

Admission Appeals

If you made an application to St Hilda’s and your child has not been offered a place, you have the right to appeal against the decision. Please contact the school directly to request a form.

Appeals are heard by a committee called an Appeal Panel, independent of the school. Your appeal case will go before an Independent Appeals Panel, and you will be invited to the hearing to present your case. This is an opportunity for the school to give a detailed explanation of why we cannot admit your child, and this is also your opportunity to present your reasons as to why you believe we should admit your child to St Hilda’s.

You should think carefully about whether or not you wish to appeal against the decision.

You will need to consider:

  • The Admissions Policy for not admitting pupils which clearly states how applications will be dealt with in the event of the school being oversubscribed.
  • Your reasons for wanting your child to attend St Hilda’s and the strength of your case (based on the oversubscription criteria).
