An address in the catchment area does not guarantee your child a place and so it’s advisable to also make contact with some of the other schools in Gosport.

If you are applying for a place for your child between Years 7 and 11, you can apply online by clicking here (link opens in a new window).

For any general admissions enquiries regarding your application, please phone the County admissions directly on 0300 555 1377 or contact them via admissions.team@hants.gov.uk.

You can download a copy of our current admissions policy from the GFM website admissions page here (link opens in new window), or from the links below.
