Admissions Arrangements

As an academy, Paisley Primary School is now its own admissions authority with responsibility for setting its own admissions arrangements.

The Local Authority (Hull City Council) continues to be responsible for co-ordinating all admissions in the area and making offers of places.

Further details on how to apply for a school place can be found on the council’s website.

The Constellation Trust as the Admission Authority for the academies in the Trust is consulting on their Admission Policy for 2025-2026.

This includes a proposal to reduce the published admissions number into Reception for Paisley Primary School from 50 to 45 from September 2025. Falling roles in the school in recent years have resulted in surplus places within the school and uneven class sizes. A reduction in the PAN to 45 will allow the school to maintain manageable class sizes and staffing levels.

Full details of the proposal are outlined in the consultation documents (links below).

You are invited to respond to these proposals by completing the response form (link below). The consultation will run from Monday 6th November until Thursday 21st December. After this date, the Trust Board of Directors will consider the evidence gathered to determine the final admissions arrangements for 2025/26.

The Constellation Trust is publicising the consultation:

  • To parents of children aged 2 or over in the local area
  • To the Local Authority
  • To neighbouring Local Authorities
  • On the Constellation Trust website;
  • On the school website via their own Admissions page
  • To people in the relevant area who may have an interest in proposed admissions
