Admission authorities (the local authority or the school's governing body/academy trust) must consult on their admission arrangements if they propose a change other than an increase to their published admission number. They must also consult if they have not consulted in the last seven years.
Consultation must take place for at least six weeks between 1 October and 31 January.
