Admissions policy

School admission policy : 2023/24 (Agreed)

If there are more applications for places than there are places available, we will give preference to children living nearest to the school, according to the following rules in this order of priority:

1. A child who has an Education Health and Care Plan naming the school or academy is required to be admitted.

2. Looked after children (children in care), previously looked after children (previously looked after children are children who were looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted or became subject to a child arrangements order or special guardianship order, immediately following having been looked after) and children adopted from abroad

3. Children who are due to start school, living in the area served by the school who have a brother or sister attending the school at the time of their admission

4. Children who are due to start school, living in the area served by the school with no brother or sister at that school

5. Children who are due to start school, living outside the area served by the school who have a brother or sister attending the school at the time of their admission

6. Children living out of the catchment area who have a faith and / or whose parents are committed Church members and wish them to receive an education in a school with a Church of England foundation [for explanation of committed Church member refer to item 3 in clarifications section of Appendix 1]. They should support this application by completing the Supplementary Information Form (SIF) in Appendix 2. Within this criterion the following hierarchy will be applied: I. Anglican II. Other Christian denomination III. Other organised religions

7 Children of staff where: I. a member of staff has been employed at the school for two or more years at the time at which the application for admission to the school is made and/or II. the member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post where there is a demonstrable skill shortage

8. Resident out of the catchment area of the school

In the event of the having to use a tie-breaker to distinguish between two or more applications of equal strength, the child living the shortest distance from home to school in a straight line as the crow flies route should have priority [
