To apply for a Year 7 place at Trinity for September 2027, applicants are required to complete both the Local Authority Common Application Form and the Trinity Supplementary Application Form 2027.

We encourage all parents/carers to return the completed Supplementary Application Form to us once it is completed. The deadline to submit this form is 31 October 2026.

The deadline to apply to the Local Authority is also 31 October in the academic year before your child starts Year 7. For example, the closing date for entry in September 2027 is 31 October 2026. Parents/carers of children due to start Year 7 in September 2027 will be sent a letter by their home Local Authority between July and September 2026 inviting them to apply for a school place. If you live in Manchester you will receive the letter in July, but for other areas please check your home LA’s website for details. More information can be found on the council’s website: www.manchester.gov.uk/admissions.

When the school is oversubscribed, the Board of Governors uses the information from the Supplementary Application Forms to rank applicants according to our admissions policy.
