1) how many pupils in total (not the PAN number) were admitted into year 7 for each admission year for the last 5 years.

The report contains the following schools: -
- Walton Academy - formally Walton Girls High School & Sixth Form.
- West Grantham Church of England Secondary Academy - formally Bluecoat Meres Academy
- The Priory Ruskin Academy.
Notes:
1. The data has been obtained from the School Census that takes place 3 times in the academic year in October, January and May.
2. School pupil admissions for the academic occur at the beginning of September. The closest School Census Return occurs a month later in the following October. During this time delay pupils may either have joined or left.
3. The data for each October School Census Return has been highlighted on the report for each academic year. This data is the most timely for admissions.
4. Data for the January and May School Census Returns have been included for completeness. Note: If the January and May census data were not included then Bluecoat Meres Academy would not show any data for the 2019/20 academic year.
