Admissions

Spencer Academies Trust schools are typically over-subscribed, but individual academies may have places available, including for in-year admissions.

Spencer Trust academies observe local authority admissions protocols, with priority given to children from feeder schools and increasingly, from partners within our broader family of schools. Our focus is on opportunity, and where possible, we will seek to accommodate children with special educational needs or additional support requirements.

Above all, we are non-selective. The Spencer Academies Trust is constituted to support aspiration and to provide opportunities for children from all backgrounds, and of mixed ability levels.

To register your interest in a place at Farnborough Spencer Academy, or for another school with The Spencer Academies Trust group, please fill out the form below. Following receipt of your registration of interest, school staff will be in touch with you and may arrange a visit if this is required.


Farnborough Spencer Academy observes local authority admissions protocols, with priority given to children with special educational needs or additional support requirements; and increasingly, from within the broader Spencer family of schools.

Information on applying for a place through the Nottingham City Council’s Coordinated Admissions Scheme is available here.

A copy of the school Admissions Policies can be found below.

The Admissions Policy includes detailed information on the applications process; the special consideration given to applications on behalf of children with special education needs and support requirements; and the criteria used when the school is over-subscribed.

Parents of children in Year 6 will receive a letter from the Local Authority inviting them to apply for a place at their preferred secondary school in early September.
