Emma: 4 feeder primaries still to send CTFs. Chase drafted for your review.
Two hundred names in July. A cohort you understand, months later.
Preferences are won at open evenings run off a clipboard. Then allocation day hands you 240 names - and the real picture arrives in dribs and drabs: CTFs chased by phone, pastoral notes on paper, form groups built over a lost weekend.
The patchwork
Six disconnected hand-offs
One pipeline
One connected pupil record
Admissions+: open evenings, the allocated intake, parent onboarding and enrolment in one record.
Emma AIChasing, drafting and answering across every stage
Miss half-term and you have missed the year. Preferences are funding.
The open evenings you run in September and October decide the preferences parents submit by the deadline - and preferences are pupil numbers. The families who visited and never heard from you again named someone else first.
The tools behind every stage.
Recruitment in the autumn, transition in the summer - one record underneath every child. Pick a tool to look inside.

Preference-uplift story to source · Customer Success
Emma built all three evenings and reminds every family booked.
Illustrative
One arrival in February. The same process as sixty in September.
In-year admissions do not wait for the transition cycle. A family moving into the area gets their own account, the same forms and the same routing - and the office runs it in minutes rather than starting a paper trail from scratch.
Applied for online
The in-year application form sits on your website all year, so nothing arrives as an email attachment.
Routed the same way
Medical, dietary and safeguarding answers reach exactly the staff who need them, for one child as for a whole cohort.
Into the MIS in one click
No re-keying a single arrival, and no separate spreadsheet of mid-year joiners.
Are you a faith school?
If you rank Year 7 applicants on faith grounds, that is a whole second process alongside the LA round. Admissions+ runs it online.
