School admission policy : 2024/25 (Agreed)
THIS SCHOOL WAS OVER-SUBSCRIBED FOR SEPTEMBER 2023
If there are more requests for places than there are places available, the Authority will admit children in the following order of priority:
- children with a statement of special educational needs naming the school;
- children in public care who are due to transfer;
- children who are due to transfer and live in the area served by the school;
- children who are due to transfer and live outside the area served by the school, who have an older brother or sister attending the school at the time of admission (but not the sixth form);
- children of staff: To qualify for this criterion the member of staff concerned must have been in post at the school for 2 years at the date of application. The only exception to this rule will be where the school can demonstrate a recruitment issue for that post;
- children who are due to transfer who live outside the area served by the school and attend a feeder school at the opening date of the admission round of the next academic year;
- children who are due to transfer and live outside the area served by the school.
If all children within any of the above rules cannot be offered a place, the highest priority will be given to children living nearest to the school within that rule. To determine who lives nearest, distance will be measured on a straight line ‘crow fly’ basis, using Ordnance Survey data. If following the application of admission rules and distance two applicants cannot be separated for a final place at a school the authority will use random allocation to determine the priority for the remaining place.

School admission policy : 2026/27 (Proposed)
The Published Admission Number (PAN) at Reepham High
School & College is currently 162. This means that the number of pupils
admitted to the school in year 7 each year is a maximum of 162. The School
Governors and Senior Leadership Team at Reepham High School & College wish
to reduce this by 12 places which will result in an annual pupil intake of 150
effective in respect of the school year 2026/27.
If there are more requests for places than there are
places available, the Authority will admit children in the following order of
priority:
- children
with a statement of special educational needs naming the school;
- children
in public care who are due to transfer;
- children
who are due to transfer and live in the area served by the school;
- children
who are due to transfer and live outside the area served by the school,
who have an older brother or sister attending the school at the time of
admission (but not the sixth form);
- children
of staff: To qualify for this criterion the member of staff concerned must
have been in post at the school for 2 years at the date of application.
The only exception to this rule will be where the school can demonstrate a
recruitment issue for that post;
- children
who are due to transfer who live outside the area served by the school and
attend a feeder school at the opening date of the admission round of the
next academic year;
- children
who are due to transfer and live outside the area served by the school.
If all children within any of the above rules cannot be
offered a place, the highest priority will be given to children living nearest
to the school within that rule. To determine who lives nearest, distance will
be measured on a straight line ‘crow fly’ basis, using Ordnance Survey data. If
following the application of admission rules and distance two applicants cannot
be separated for a final place at a school the authority will use random
allocation to determine the priority for the remaining place.
