This year's Admissions Consultation was held by City of York Council and some MATs operating within the city between 8th October and 21st November 2025. The Coordinated Admission Consultation includes the admission policies and planned number of places available at each school in the year(s) of entry.
Responses are collated by an online survey, schools, trusts, parents/carers and any interested parties may all contribute to the Admission Consultation.
Following the consultations, each admission authority will formally set ('determine') their admission arrangements for admission in 2027 - 2028 by 28 February 2026. Determined policies will be on the City of York Council website by 15 March 2026 after which objections can be raised.
All documents can be found in their draft (pre-determined) form at School Admissions Consultation 2027 to 2028 – City of York Council Determined policies for the 2024-25 and 2025 - 2026 can be found at https://www.york.gov.uk/SchoolAdmissionPolicies

If you are interested in your child/children joining Westfield Primary Community School, we would be more than happy to arrange a show around. Please ring the School Office on 01904 555295 to organise a convenient date and time.
We do not offer one set day but prefer to offer individual appointments enabling families to ask questions specific to their child and to see our school in action.
