If you would like any advice or guidance with the admissions to Atlantic Academy, please call 01237 431969 or e-mail: enquiries@atlanticacademy.uk

Our admissions policy is similar to that of other local schools. However, there is no ‘catchment’. If the school becomes over-subscribed then admissions will be decided on distance from the school.

Parents and their children are always welcome to look around the school and speak to the Principal. To arrange a visit or for help with an application, please contact us on 01237 431969 or email enquiries@atlanticacademy.uk
