Criteria

Arrangements for applications for places at Ormiston Forge Academy will be made in accordance with Sandwell Local Authority’s co-ordinated admission arrangements and will be made on the Common Application Form provided and administered by Sandwell Council.

When the number of applications for admission made is greater than the published admission number (currently 310 per year) applications will be made against Sandwell’s published admission criteria. This is available on the following link.

The Academy holds open evenings and days for prospective students and parents in the autumn term. For students who join the Academy at times other than the start of year 7, an appointment will be made for you to visit the Academy and meet with relevant staff, normally an assistant principal.
