Admissions & Prospectus

Trinity Academy Grammar is a heavily oversubscribed school; although we would like to offer a place to every child who wants to come to here, that sadly is not possible. We admit 180 students per year into Year 7 and these places are awarded strictly in line with the terms of our Admissions Policy (including our oversubscription criteria).

Fair Banding applications are open!

Fair Banding - How it Works

Trinity Academy Grammar is here to serve the local community and our Admissions Policy reflects this. Our students and staff come from a wide range of backgrounds, and are of all faiths and none. Our vision is to transform the experiences and chances of young people from the local area by offering them an education that is tailored to their needs. In partnership with our sister institution, Trinity Academy Halifax, we are working to become an outstanding institution where no limits are placed on what our young people can achieve.

Join Us

Trinity Academy Grammar is a popular school, but we do occasionally have places available to parents of students who are new to the area, or those who wish to join us in Year 8 and above via an in-year transfer. Please contact us to discuss a visit to the academy and support with the in-year application process.

All applications are made via Calderdale Council’s admissions process.
