Although the county co-ordinates admissions for all schools, as Church Langton is a Church of England Aided Primary School, the School Governors remain the admissions authority.
In formulating the admissions policy for the school the School Governors consult with the Leicester Diocesan Board of Education and the Leicestershire LA.
The criteria for admission reflect the Trust Deed and the Anglican Foundation of the school. The Policy is annually updated. All applications are considered by the Admissions Committee.
