Admissions consultation (2025)

In December 2025 The Jewish Chronicle reported that Lewis, as chair of governors, had written to parents to apologise after a consultation on the school's admissions policy for September 2027 caused protest among parents.[7] Under the existing policy, priority goes to children of families who "regularly attend and participate" at Edgware Adath Yisroel Congregation (EAYC). The consultation document proposed that, for their children to get priority, men would have to attend services at EAYC at least six times a week in the two years before applying. It also set out dress rules for women.[7] In his letter Lewis said the aim had been "a fairer, clearer and more transparent admissions process" and that he was "so very sorry" for the distress caused. The governing body withdrew the consultation in full.[7]
