School admission policy : 2024/25 (Agreed)

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 academy will use random allocation to determine the priority for the remaining place.

THIS SCHOOL WAS OVER-SUBSCRIBED FOR SEPTEMBER 2024
If there are more requests for places than places available, the academy will admit children in the following order of priority:
- children with an EHCP or statement of special educational needs naming the school;
- children in public care who are due to transfer;
- children who have a sibling on roll at the academy at the time of proposed admission;
- children of staff in the school: To qualify for this criterion the member of staff concerned must have been in post at the school for 1 year 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 and live in the area served by the school;
- 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;
- 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.
