School admission policy : 2025/26 (Agreed)
In the event of over-subscription, where there are more
applications than there are places available, the following priorities will be
used, in order, to allocate places:
1. Children in the care of the local authority and children
who were previously looked after but ceased to be so because they were adopted
(or became subject to a child arrangement order or special guardianship order).
Including those children who appear (to the admission authority) to have been
in state care outside of England and ceased to be in state care as a result of
being adopted.
2. Children living in the catchment area who have an older
brother or sister attending at the time of admission.
3. Children living outside the catchment area of the school
who have an elder brother or sister at the school at the time of admission.
4. Other children living within the catchment area.
5. Children who live nearest to the academy measured on a
straight line basis using Ordnance Survey data. If priorities have to be
decided within any of these categories, children will be placed in order of
priority using a straight line distance measured from the Post Office address
point on the home address t to the Post Office address point on the school.
For admission to Year 3, the transfer from the Infant School
is not automatic. Admission to Year 3 is coordinated by the Local Authority.
The over-subscription criteria used to allocate places in Year 3 follow that
for admission to Reception. The waiting list is managed by the Local Authority
in strict over-subscription criteria order until 31 December of that academic
year
