Admissions Review and Decision Handoff
The Principal admissions view provides context for applications awaiting school review. Use it to assess evidence and prepare a clear decision handoff; a decision alone does not create an enrollment, section placement, or family communication.
Available now. Last reviewed: 19 August 2026.
Review an admissions case
- Confirm the applicant identity, guardian contact, target grade, current stage, and staff notes.
- Check that the evidence required by your school’s admissions policy has been reviewed through the approved process.
- Record a factual decision rationale that is suitable for the school record.
- Hand the outcome to the authorised Staff/Admin owner for operational follow-up.
- Verify that the applicant record reflects the agreed next step before closing the leadership review.
What happens next
Staff and School Admin complete the confirmed operational follow-up, including any enrollment, class placement, or approved family communication.

Troubleshooting
A placement is requested urgently
Record the request but do not promise a section, start date, or fee. School Admin must confirm enrollment and capacity.
The case includes safeguarding, health, or identity concerns
Do not add unnecessary detail to decision notes; use the school’s safeguarded escalation route.
A decision must be revised or the case is incomplete
Preserve a factual decision trail and return it to the authorised review workflow instead of creating another application or approving without a clear policy basis.
