It also sought approval of the coordinated admissions schemes for the City of York area (for which the City of York Council is the coordinating Local Authority) for applications to start the school year beginning in September 2022 and approval of the proposed changes of catchment areas for three specific areas:
· Boroughbridge Road
· York Central

The School Admissions Manager outlined the report and annexes. The School Place Planning Project Officer detailed the proposed changes to the catchment and reasons for those changes, particularly in relation to new housing developments.
The Executive Member then;

b) That approval be given to the coordinated schemes and admissions policies for all City of York Council schools for the 2022-2023 school year, as set out in Annexes B – AB of the report.
c) That approval be given to the catchment area changes for the areas effecting CYC maintained schools as set out in Annexes AD – AK.
Reason: To meet the statutory requirements of the School Admissions Code of Practice and to allow for the continued effective and efficient use of catchment areas within the City of York when allocating school places and the accommodation of future residential developments.
