Details

You can use these files to transfer data related to:

  • admissions to schools from September 2025
  • in-year admissions during the 2024 to 2025 academic year

In-year co-ordination is not statutory, but own admission authority schools (for example, academy schools) must notify the local authority of the application for admission and its outcome.

Note: XSD files must be stored in a separate folder from those used in earlier years, as some of the files have identical names and may be overwritten in error.
