If there is oversubscription in any priority category, places within that category will be allocated according to the order of the subsequent priorities. Any additional “tie break” will be determined by a random lottery conducted by the School under the supervision of an independent person.

 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 at the school

 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                   (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                  (ii) have been recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage.

 FOURTH PRIORITY. 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 Ordnance Survey data and calculated by the Local Authority School Admissions Department.
