The number of in-year admissions has continued to increase.  Please contact Mrs Linda Chard at the school to request a Court Fields School application form (01823 664201 or schooloffice@courtfields.net).  We like prospective new students to visit Court Fields School with their parents before applying in order to meet with our Assistant Head who oversees the admissions process, and have a tour of the school.  Mrs Chard can arrange that visit for you.   We have a supportive system in place to ensure that new students settle quickly and happily.  

In-Year Applications

Applications will be considered by Governors and you will be notified of their decision within 10 school days of receipt, which is available from the School Office.  Please contact 01823 664201 or schooloffice@courtfields.net to request a form.

In-Year Appeals Procedure for 2022-23

We currently employ the services of Somerset County Council to process appeals and hold Independent Appeals Panel on our behalf.  For details about the appeals procedure please contact Somerset County Council’s Admissions & Entitlements Team.

National Offer Day 1 March 2023

It’s important that you read the School Admission Appeals Booklet before you fill in the appeal form.

Either complete the appeal form online or download and complete the paper form and ensure it is received by 29 March 2023. Appeals will be heard as soon as reasonably practicable and we aim to do this within 40 school days of this date wherever possible.

• You will receive at least 14 days’ notice of your appeal hearing, unless you want to waive this right by ticking the appropriate box on the appeal form.
• You must send any additional evidence before the final deadline, which is 7 days before the appeal hearing. The panel will decide whether to consider at the hearing any information or evidence received after that date.
• Decision letters will be sent within 7 days of the hearing.

For applications received after 31 October 2022 but before 21 March 2023, outcomes will be sent on 2 May 2023 and appeal forms must be received by 29 March 2023. Appeals will be heard as soon as reasonably practicable and we aim to do this within 40 school days wherever possible.

For applications received after 29 March, the appeal will be heard as soon as reasonably practicable and we aim to do this within 30 school days of receipt of the appeal form wherever possible. This follows the same timetable as in-year appeals.
