Admissions

Thank you for your interest in Medina College.

Parents who are considering applying are warmly invited to visit the school, although this is not a requirement of the Admissions process. The Transition Team at the school will be pleased to provide information and answer questions by letter or telephone, or to meet parents to discuss possible applications. 

Medina College has Foundation status and takes students of mixed aptitude and ability aged 11-19. The Governing Board is the admissions authority. Up to 180 students are admitted to year 7 each year.

Medina College is part of the Isle of Wight Council’s Co-ordinated Admissions  Scheme. For admission to all schools, the Local Authority is required  to operate a Co-ordinated Admissions Scheme and applications for all school places must be  made on the common application form provided by the Authority, with the opportunity to  nominate up to three schools, ranked in order of preference.
