School admission policy : 2025/26 (Agreed)
If there is oversubscription in any priority category,
places within that category will be allocated according to the order of the
subsequent priorities.
FIRST PRIORITY is given to candidates who are looked after
or are previously looked after in accordance with paragraph 1.7 of the Schools
Admission Code (September 2021).
SECOND PRIORITY is given to candidates who have a sibling
who is on roll at the Nursery School or at Old Buckenham High School. A sibling
is defined as a brother or sister sharing at least one parent and who is
normally resident at the same address. This includes adopted children and those
living in the same home under a recognised fostering arrangement.
THIRD PRIORITY is given to children of staff (includes
support and teaching staff on a permanent contract) at the school where the
member of staff is the legal parent / guardian of that child and: (i) been
employed at the school for two or more years at the time at which the
application for admission to the school is made, or (ii) have been recruited to
fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage.
Remaining places are allocated on the basis of proximity to
the School. This is determined as the straight line distance between the
address at which the child is resident on the closing date for applications and
the main entrance of the School using Ordinance Survey data and calculated by
the Local Authority School Admissions Department.
