Broadwater has a planned admission number of 150 places that includes 6 places for the Language Resource. In September 2021, we took a bulge class of 30 in order to cater for the increasing demand of first preferences. The closing date for applications is 31st October 2023. To apply for a Year 7 place for September 2024, please click HERE.
Places for Year 7 after 1st September become In Year Admissions. For more information regarding the admissions process, please watch our Admissions video below.
Admission during the year (In Year Applications):
Broadwater School is part of Surrey County Council's Co-ordinated Admissions Scheme for In-Year Admissions. Applications for admission to Year 7 after 1st September and for admission into Years 8 to 11 must be made to the Local Authority in which the school is situated via the In Year online portal. If you wish to apply for a place at Broadwater School, you must name the school as one of your preferences on the application form and submit online or by completing an In Year Admission CMA form and returning to Surrey Admissions.
Where there are more applicants than places available, the school will maintain a waiting list according to the oversubscription criteria detailed in the school’s admission arrangements without regard to the date the application was received or when a child’s name was added to the waiting list.
Positions on the waiting lists may go down as well as up. This is because other children might be added to the waiting list who have a greater priority for a place against the school’s admission criteria; for example, when new families move into the area or when other families who had not previously named Broadwater as a preference, ask to go on the waiting list after the initial allocations date.

Appeals:
Parents have a statutory right of appeal against the decision not to offer a place at a school, under the School Standards & Framework Act 1998.
Appeals will be heard by an independent appeals panel established by the Greenshaw Learning Trust to hear the appeal. The panel will decide whether to uphold or dismiss the appeal. Where a panel upholds the appeal the school is required to admit the child.
Appeals for entry in September 2024 must be received by 19th April 2024 at the latest if these are to be heard by the Independent Appeals Panel by 24 June 2024. Appeals received after 19th April 2024 where possible, will be heard by 24 June 2024; however, this will depend on the date the appeal is lodged and cannot be guaranteed.
