Local authority annual report

All local authorities are required to make a report to the schools adjudicator about the admission arrangements of schools in their area by 30 June each year. Local authorities must include arrangements of all maintained schools, academies, city technology colleges (CTCs) and city technology colleges of the arts (CCTAs) in their area. They must also report on the effectiveness of coordination of admissions for pupils to schools in their area, and for pupils in their area to other schools.

In their reports, local authorities must include how admission arrangements have operated in the previous year and include a statement as to whether the admission arrangements for the following year comply with the statutory requirements. In preparing their report, local authorities that consider that an admission authority has determined unlawful arrangements must seek to ensure that these arrangements are amended.
