Overview
Redbridge is undertaking a consultation on our admission arrangements for community schools, for the existing arrangements to be reviewed and updated for the 2025-2026 academic year.
The proposed changes upon which consultation is also taking place is as follows:
Reducing the Published Admission Number from 60 to 30 at Gilbert Colvin Primary School.
Reducing the Published Admission Number from 90 to 60 at Mayespark Primary School.
Reducing the Published Admission Number from 120 to 90 at Parkhill Infants' School.
Each local authority must have a Fair Access Protocol to ensure that unplaced and vulnerable children, and those who are having difficulty in securing a school place in-year, are allocated a school place as quickly as possible.

Anyone with an interest in education, such as parents, community groups or schools may like to comment on the arrangements and the proposed change to them.
All observations are welcomed and comments can be made through this online consultation, or sent by e-mail to admissions@redbridge.gov.uk under the title “Response to Admissions Consultation 2025-2026”.
The consultation will be live online for 43 days from Wednesday 8 November 2023 at 00:01. The deadline for comments is Wednesday 20 December 2023 at 23:59.
This will enable any observations to be considered by the Authority's Cabinet at its meeting on 15 February 2024, before it decides the final admission arrangements.
Please note that Redbridge schools that are responsible for their own admissions may also be consulting on admissions for their own schools if they propose any changes to their arrangements or have not consulted in the last 7 years. This includes all voluntary aided faith schools, foundation schools and academies, including free schools. Schools can only change their arrangements if they consult, so without consultation they must remain unchanged.
