How to apply for a place at XP East

XP School Trust run two academically rigorous 11-19 mainstream secondary schools in Doncaster, UK called XP and XP East. They are situated next to each other to form a campus.

Both schools are deliberately sized with 250 students in Key Stages 3 and 4 for each school, with an additional 200 students catered for Post 16. Each school caters for ages 11-19, with 25 students in each class and two classes per year group. The schools are being rolled out over seven years, starting with XP’s Year 7 in 2014, achieving full capacity in 2020, and XP East starting Year 7 in 2017, achieving full capacity in 2023.

We welcome applications from all children residing in the postcodes of DN1 to DN12 and S64. It does not matter how close you live to the school. Admissions are determined by a random lottery administered independently by the Local Authority.
