Files for the electronic transfer of 2027 co-ordinated admissions data, primarily for use by software suppliers.

Applies to England

Admissions file examples

Admissions transfer file: example file

Details

You can use these files to transfer data related to:

  • admissions to schools from September 2027
  • in-year admissions during the academic year 2026 to 2027

In-year co-ordination is not statutory but own admission authority schools (for example academy schools) must notify the local authority of the application for admission and its outcome.

Note: XSD files must be stored in a separate folder from those used in earlier years as some of the files have identical names and may be overwritten in error.
