The school's draft 2027-28 Admissions Policy is available here: https://www.brightwell.oxon.
It reflects Oxfordshire County Council’s 2027-28 admission rules and arrangements for primary schools. There is one key change compared to the school’s 2026-27 Admissions Policy:
One of the over-subscription criteria now refers to “children of staff employed by the school” rather than “children of staff of MTOAT employed by the school”, in line with the School Admissions Code:
“Children of staff of the school where the member of staff has been employed by the school for two or more years at the time at which the application for admission to the school is made, and/or the member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage”.
For reference, the current Brightwell School 2026-27 Admissions Policy is available here: Brightwell cum Sotwell CofE Primary School - Admissions
